During WW2 British and Commonwealth forces were issued with machete’s as opposed to an axe or smaller hatchet for field use and could be used for most tasks short of cutting down trees.
This late war machete was part of the 44 Pattern equipment, designed for jungle use in the Far East, and featured an American style webbing scabbard with wire hanging loops designed to work with the grommets found on 44 Pattern belts and haversacks.
The blade was 17.5” long with an overall length of 22.5”. The machete itself has black plastic grips and marked with a code of ‘AF 0100’. At least six British manufactures have been identified during 1945.
Priced to reflect rarity and condition with some minor ‘discolouration’ to the blade and a mint unissued scabbard.
Please examine the photographs as they form part of the description.
