That's an earlier blade, before they started etching them.

I found this image online, written that this is model 4 "fighter" WWII.
Interesting who is now the owner?
I would like to see the pictures from other angles, if possible smile

Here is a cool old #4 fighter from the early 50's. Pinned stag with finger grips. Love the double hilt.

That fighter is an outstanding example of a great period in RMK!

That is a misnomer. That is in Pete's book, and it is a Commando model of some sort. Unique to say the least and not a "model 4", which was not introduced until after the war.

But a precursor to the model #4 for sure....... would you agree Joe?

Joe,

On this post and one by Whiteman on the Model 1's thread, both knives look like the hilt matches the duralum cap. I am assuming this is not nickle silver; what material is the hilt?

This one came up on e-bay a number of years ago advertised as only a "Hunting knife". As a result, the seller lost some money (Seller's original pic):



Here it is with three like "friends". Models 1, 2, 3 & 4 all with double hilts, all with ivory and all from the early to mid 50's"
