crutchtip Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/16/05 Posts: 2854	Originally Posted By: Guido_Bitossi I see some resemblance to Zakarias in the...longer blade..do you? Not really. This knife is by the time it was made the "Model 1". Most of the things you might associate with a Zacharias style fighter had been modified and somewhat standardized and that is what you have in these knives. It didn't take Bo long, a matter of months, to reach this point with most of the one off or experimental" stuff done by very early 1943. Here a couple that are more closely associated with the Zacharias fighter. Attachments ------ _________________________ www.rmkcollector.com BUY-SELL-TRADE

Tom Vaught Knife Enthusiast Registered: 04/26/10 Posts: 574 Loc: Michigan	Thanks for that info, Joe, now I know. Thought the hilt was designed for a blade up for a Zacharias. (Long Hilt guard down) Tom Vaught Edited by Tom Vaught (05/18/13 09:14 PM) _________________________ Tom Vaught RKS# 5100
