Kingdom of Italy, WWII - Italiano Pugnale del G.I.L. (Gioventù Italiana del Littorio - ventennio della) c.1937. The double-edged, 6 11/16 inch long, spear-point, blued blade on this one looks wonderful. Nice crossgrain, with a nicely executed “GIL” stamp and a perfect tip and fit. The scabbard is constructed out of a single piece of pressed, blackened tanned leather that has been stitched to the back and stapled to the tip. The reverse leather hanger is attached to the scabbard with four angled rivets. One rivet has been glued back in. The hilt features; a single-piece, curved, blued iron crossguard, a two-piece wood grip that is secured with two steel peened on rivets, and ends at a domed blued iron pommel top that shows the through tang. A rare unissued piece.
