For anyone that might be interested, this WWII Robeson Navy issue machete showed up on Ebay.
These are very rare and the sheaths are almost shot.
They had blued blades and are beautiful in good condition.
A good many I have seen had a piece of wood handle missing.
I have tried half a dozen times to snatch one of these off Ebay and was always outbid.
I'm not buying Robeson knives anymore.
