Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Case XX Bowie Knife: I Had No Idea

I bought this some years back, but didn't think it was anything other than a modern Case rendition of a Bowie knife. I had no idea that it was actually the same model Case (XX) Bowie knife, still made by them, that was purchased by and issued to the US Marines in the Pacific Theater during WWII under the designation Bowie Knife V-44. Just found that out, and thought it was pretty cool. I now treasure it a little more.





This one is an original US Military Issue Case XX V-44 from WWII
