This Wilcoxson Knuckle Knife has a cast aluminum handle that is marked on one side: MADE BY W. D. WILCOXSON and on the reverse side GORDON J. WOLFE O-833655 AUG. 15 1944. The blade is a bright double edged spearpoint that is 10 1⁄2 inches long with a swell in the middle. Original heavy brown leather scabbard is marked CLEARHIDE that indicates the sheath was probably made from factory leather belting. Mr. W. D. Wilcoxson was a resident of Terre Haute, Indiana and made these knives at a factory there during WWII.
