A WWII Dive Knife made by Kabar. Union Cutlery Co in Olean, NY made the famed KA-BAR fighting knife for the US Marines. They also produced the standard divers knife for the US Navy.

This knife has "KA-BAR" on one side and "Union Cutlery Co" on the other. The brass sheath is un-marked. A top example in like-new condition. A difficult-to-find U.S. Navy diver's knife.
