U.S. Military Machetes (and their markings)

For U.S. machetes? Thanks

I've seen them discussed here in GKD and in the axe forum. Probably depends on what aspects you'd like to talk about. A quick search of this particular sub (titles only) brings up a smorgasbord of threads.

That's one of the enduring questions at Blade Forums.

I should have included "Military" in my question. I'm not interested in the commercial ones. Thanks.

It's still going to come down to what you want to talk about. Issued or not doesn't make a lot of difference. I would just post it here and if it needs to be moved, someone will pop it over with a link to your thread

We'll leave it here for now. It's possible that some of the resident experts in the other sub-forum may be able to provide some more specific info depending on your parameters.

Now this is looking like Practical Tactical.

Now this is looking like Practical Tactical.

I collect, or I might say gather, mainly military edged weapons from the late 1800's to the Viet Nam era, and pick up other knives, swords, daggers, etc. that catch my eye. The U.S. stamping on these have peaked my interest.

What do you want to know or show?

I have in another post in this forum.

Military issue/use and approximate time frame of production. Thanks.

You should start by sharing images of your own military machetes, info and markings, and then requesting others to share images and information about their own.

Your thread, as it stands, is confusing at best.

I'm going to change the title as a start...
