This is a very attractive example. The handle is very good and has the original owner's name stamped into the leather with WWII era military letter stamps. The blade is good, but does show use. The correct scabbard is very good and without issues. The maker, Imperial, is marked on the guard. Overall, this is a really attractive example.
This M3 knife was sold right after the war on the commercial market. The original blade markings were removed, the blade was polished, and marked "Kutmaster" This was standard practice by the Utica Company, as Kutmaster was their trade name. It is in super nice condition, with the correct commercial scabbard. It would also display really well in an M3 scabbard, as the only thing changed was the blade. These are tough to find in super condition.
This is from a WWII GI estate in Western Michigan. It is a cut-down 1943 dated K98 Mauser bayonet. The blade is cut into a bowie knife style. The grips have been replaced with WWII era clear plastic with silver reflective material underneath. This is a nice example of a theater made fighting knife. If only it could talk!!
These usually sell for well over $550, but this one has several small issues. First, overall it is very nice and still functional, as a NON shooting display piece. The bolt cocks, and it can be disassembled like a real Thompson. It has a great overall real appearance. The front grip mount is cracked and slightly bent, but, I think some crazy glue would fix this. The butt plate is missing, and there are some scratches to the back stock. Other than that, this is a great old Japanese made Thompson SMG for your WWII Display.
This is a super example of the early pineapple with the bright and unique yellow original paint correct for this maker. The body is the early plugged type and is perfect. The correct fuse is also original to the piece and in great condition. If you like GI ord, this is for you!
This is a very good example of the standard US WWII pineapple grenade. The body has a nice even green original painted finish. The fuse is painted green with the lower part painted black. The top has a little corrosion, but nothing major. Overall this is a completely correct WWII Example that is very attractive for your display.
This one came out of a garage sale last month in Warren, MI, from one of my pickers. It is a typical WWII era pineapple. The spoon is the plain steel type, and has "to Hitler" scratched into it years ago. The body has the correct green without the yellow stripe, which is common. The bottom has been filed on to make it flat, so it would stand up on a desk. This does not show or hurt the piece. I think only a micro amount of material was removed. Overall, this is a very sound example!
Every grenade came in one of these cardboard tubes. This is a really tough one to find. It is in solid condition with good WWII markings.
This is an attractive example with nice bright colors. The straps are all there and without problems. The body is mostly solid but does have some damage on the upper left side. I am not sure what caused the holes, but they hardy show as the top slap covers 95% of the holes. The inside is nicely marked and 1943 dated. This is an attractive piece of GI fieldgear that will display very will with your Pacific war stuff.
This is a great looking example. It is not mint, but excellent, showing almost no age. It has no issues or problems, and will look great in your display.

This is a very nice 42 dated & complete example. It is overall unissued. The "25" is written on the front and back is written with period grease pencil. I am unsure what it means, but cold be a post war Army surplus store price in cents. Still, it displays really well, and is a great example.

This is a very solid example. It is made of green canvas which is slightly faded. The talon zipper works fine. The only issue are the 2 leather reinforcements @ each end of the zipper have dried and fallen off. Still it is a very good original example.
This is an absolutely mint WWII Marine Corps M.1 carbine mag pouch. It was never issued, and has clear markings, light khaki color. It is a great original piece of U.S.M.C. field gear.
This Marine Corps carbine mag pouch is a variation that would not be obvious to the novice collector. The Marine Corps seldom marked the front of their gear and often did not put the U.S.M.C. marking on the back, this is one such example, with only the mfg, date and contract number on the back. If it was Army issue it would have the standard U.S. stamped on the front as all Q.M.C. gear had. It is used in excellent condition.

These tool rolls are the same as above, but later war dark OD green. I again have several.

This is a really good example complete with the original tie down pigtail. It is nicely marked and made of really solid leather. This one is a real winner.
This is a great example with nice solid leather and completely functional snaps. It is not mint, but just a real really nice. You will like it.
This is a standard GI WWII shoulder holster which shows some honest age and use. I would call it overall a medium good to fair. It is basically solid and without issues. The belt loop snap is still functional, which is usually broken. The back of the belt lop is very thin, but still all in one piece. This is a good holster for a mannequin of general US display.
This is another great piece of US fieldgear. The cover is mint marked JEFF. Q.M.D.(Jefferson Quarter Master Depot) 1943. The cup and canteen are both 1944 dated in slightly used condition. The canteen has light corrosion around the bottom half from being in the cup for many years. This set has no doubt been together for many years. It is overall a great example.
These are standard issue WWII water purification tablets which every GI was issued in the field. The bottles have nice original labels and still have the little white pills inside. These are the 1st ones I have had for sale in a while. The condition is great.
This is a great example. The color is nice and bright, with untouched metal fittings. It has no problems, and is a really solid example which will look great in your collection.
This is an excellent example of the U.S. WWII wrist compass. These were most often worn by US paratroopers. It does not have a strap, butI have seen them used with anything from leather to canvas web straps. I don't think any are incorrect.
These cases have always been a tough item to find. The compass is functional and original WWII issue. The case is nice, but just dirty from use, and could use a hand washing in the sink with some hand soap. Overall it is a nice item, that is hard to find.

This looks to be mostly complete. The bag appears to be full of flags. Many still have the original paper packaging. Some do show some oxidation, but noting major. The bag is very solid showing some light age with just a small amount of overall light dust or dirt. These complete sets are tough to find in today's market.
I have a small quantity of these 43 dated life belts. They are overall very solid and good for display. The only issue is the rubber oral inflation hoses are typically broken off, but the rest of the parts are very good showing only light age.
I don't know a lot about these, but it is a WWII example. It has 2 original WWII dated manuals and the whole thing is in excellent condition, but I am unsure if it still works. Everything that comes with it is pictured. It will be a great display item with your other US WWII stuff.

This type of pouch was favored by airborne troops. It was designed to carry 5 30 round Thompson or grease gun magazines. They were popular as they could be used to carry different types of ammo. It is maker marked and 1942 dated. The condition is good & solid, with the original strap, and it has no problems.

This is exactly like the WWII one, except the markings are more modern. I would suspect from the 1950s. The color is the later WWII green. The entire pouch is perfect, showing only light use. WWII ones sell for over $300. This is a very good example for your display without spending a $million.
This is the standard US WWII model for NCOs and junior officers as well as MG gunners motor and artillery guys. They are made by Nash-Kalvinator in 1942. The optics are a little foggy, but functional and with the reticule. They also come with the original WWII era strap.
This is the standard dark russet brown leather field bino case. The shoulder strap has been removed to be worn on the belt. It is nice and sound but without any markings.
This is a great first aid kit bought from an old collection. This canvas kit is packed full with original contents all of which look like they would be original to the kit. The kit also has a G.I. carlisle pouch hanging from it, this is how we got it so we're leaving them together. The carlisle pouch has an original dressing tin inside unopened. Both are in great condition just showing normal use and age. The kit is marked AVERY 1945 and the carlisle pouch B.B.S. 1943.
This is the classic version which can be laced short or kept long. The material is the correct khaki, but I do not see any marks. I did not look that hard. No, it is not one from At The Front. The Owner is a good friend of mine, and although their US stuff is super nice; I do not push it onto unsuspecting medic bag buyers. It has some original Med Dpt. markings on the front. Overall the bag is a nice solid example.

This is the 1st 1944 dated set I have had. They are very common with postwar dates. It is complete with both pots and the pan cover. It shows some use, but no abuse. This is a chance to buy a rare piece of mountain field gear.
This is the bag that held 3 standard US WWII 2.36 inch rockets for the 9A1 and all other rocket launchers of that diameter. It is a really nice condition, and has no damage. The interior has had the original 3 straps which separated the bag into compartments removed, which was typical, as the GIs found these bags would hold more "stuff" without the dividers.
