Devil's Brigade

Those of you who are WW-II afficianados or edged weapons collectors may have heard of the Devil's Brigade. This was the American First Special Service Force, a force of exceptional men and weapons. Their signature weapon was the Case V-42. The V-42 is a unique dagger unlike any other issued then or since. There is no sense in me re-writing the history when you can check out the following website for more detailed information. I will be posting more photos on our website in the next few days. http://www.survivalcache.com/forums/showthread.php?100-FSSF-V42-Fighting-Knife or this one: http://www.armyhistory.org/ahf2.aspx?pgID=877&id=387&exCompID=56
