    Info: According to
    the National Museum of the Marine Corps: In the early days of WWII, supplying the rapidly expanding American military was an extreme challenge. As knives were scarce, an enterprising knife manufacturer in Glendale, CA bought a stock of M1913 Cavalry Sabers to construct them into something usable that he could sell to deploying troops. Knives of this type were created from surplus M1913 Cavalry sabers by the Anderson Company in California. The company cut the long straight blade into three pieces, honed a point of the blades, and made a handle out of molded plastic.
