Us 1918 lfc-1918 trench knife if this is on it its not a replica?

Probably not. Most of the replica knives do not have the "LF&C 1918" beneath the "US 1918" However, better fakes of this knife have surfaced. The only way to be certain is to have a military knife collector look at it for you.

What is a knuckle knife?

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.


How do you know if a 1918 trench knife is a replica or not?

Take it to a collectors show. They are more than happy to show you if they think you were scammed. to start with, look for "LF & C" stamped on the knife. Repros say some other company. Replicas worth $25 are marked US 1918 on the brass handle.


What type of knives were used in World War 1?

The Trench Knife was created in WWI for the specific needs encountered at close quarters. A rifle with attached bayonet is of little value once the attacker is actually inside the enemies trenches. This environment is better suited to a meat cleaver, a short club or a handgun. The studded brass knuckle US Mark I Model 1918 was designed for use in the trenches and is often seen in the movies, but it failed to get to the troops before the Armistice. The actual blade used was called knuckle duster, and it was a wooden handeled stiletto with a rolled steel handguard, the U.S. M1917. The UK's trench knife was also a classic double edged stiletto, but it lacked a handguard. This was the F-S Fighting Knife which was called the commando knife in WWII and is still in use by the Royal Marines.

What is the value of 1918 US ocl knife?

Hard to say what the 1918 OCL trench knife is worth because they are so rare. It's believed only a few dozen exist and many of them are just the brass handles with no blade. I believe the ones with blades are much more rare than the ones without and depending on condition they could easily bring well over $2,000 if the blade is original to the knife. Beware of fakes. The ones without blades would probably be worth half that.
