This knife shows rust and wear due to its age. It does have rust and patina on the blade, guard, and pommel.
Features a clip point blade with a serrated (saw-back) top edge, designed for emergency escape tasks like cutting through an aircraft fuselage.
Built with a stacked leather washer handle that show shrinkage from age, the steel guard is a bit loose, and uses a heavy hexagonal peened pommel.
The "Japan" marking identifies it as a Japanese-made variant of the standard U.S. military-issued pilot knife.
