Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

New and help.

Hi, new to the group, and based in the UK. I collect vintages knives, and have a small collection. I prefer to collect ww1 (when I can afford them!) And ww2, preferably U.S knives. The knife in the picture came from an auction, along with a nice M3. Have no idea on origin, value? Any help would be great thanks.

Tony, your knife looks to be a Khyber (or Khyber styled) knife.  True Khyber knives generally have a t shaped spine and have a full tang.

Thank you for your help. It does look like a Khyber knife and the spine has the T-shape t it . The scabbard is made of leather over wood, and has 1919 stamped into the blade, shall continue to explore along the Khyber/ Persian route.
