Can you tell me the date on the Clasp knife?
Nice group of knives there! The RAAF chute knife is something I have never seen before. Do you have a picture of it with the blades opened?I have but one Australian knife in my accumulation. Not sure when it was issued but it looks fairly old.
Hi Australia, another aussie here Just wondering, what are the extra markings on the chute knife to show that it is RAAF issue?Cheers, John
