There was a trench knife issued to US Army troops that was a knife that had a "Brass Knuckles" handle. Brass Knuckles is a brass "ring" that you slip over your hand, each finger going into a loop. This is used for hand-to-hand fighting. The knife had this same construction as part of the handle/grip. I'm not sure if this was an official Army issue. The Army preferred the soldier carry a bayonet that would fit onto the rifle. This brass knuckle trench knife couldnot do this.
I believe They are illegal but u can find them for sale as brass knuckle paper weights! Gotta love loop holes! I found some in Tulsa in an army surplus store!
depending on condition $150 - $250

"Brass" is a reference to officers; typically, it refers to higher level (field grade) officers (Major and above); particularly, those in the command and decision making process.
