WW2 BOMAR Corp. US Navy Mark V Divers Knife

Item Details

Description

This is a great opportunity to purchase one of the most difficult to find WW2 era US Navy dive knives! This is an authentic US Navy Standard Divers knife, aka the Mark V knife, made by the Bomar Corporation located in Pittsburg, PA. The brass sheath is clearly stamped with their company information. The knife is in unrestored original condition. Please refer to the photos for overall condition specifics. Out of the eight WW2 USN dive knife manufacturers, Bomar made relatively few, making them quite difficult to find today.

If you are an international customer, please confirm with your customs agency that a diving knife is allowed into your country. This is not our responsibility. Shipping knives in the last year, have become an issue with various customs agencies and we are not liable for any return fees with the auction house, shipping fees, or any confiscation by customs.

All items will be shipped with a signature required upon delivery and full insurance either via FedEx or the USPS Priority Mail. Worldwide shipping is available; however, no ocean freight will be offered on large items. DHL Express is an option for international shipments under 600 pounds via air. Payment via bank wire for customers outside the USA is required. A shipping quote prior to the auction can be provided by emailing your postal code.
