About twenty years ago,
I bought a knife that appears to be stainless,
yet the blade is painted by black paint,
The blade is about five inches long,
and the point rather fragile.
The plastic sheath reads,
"
MK 3 MOD 0
USN
"
The blade reads,
"
MK 3
MOD 0
"
I doubt that this is a valuable collector item,
but it was neither cheap,
nor expensive.
My best guess is that it was,
at the time,
the standard issue US Navy dive knife.
Any enlightened comments would be appreciated.
