This is one of those very rare Klewang's, the Model 1940, which were made in the late 1930's just prior to the outset of WWII. This particular model had the blade made by VINCE or MILSCO, both U.S. manufacturers, which were then mostly shipped to the Netherlands East Indies as replacement blades for the Klewang Model's M1898 and M1911. These blades were also assembled using hilts and cups produced in the Netherlands which had a slight variation in that the open apertures were smooth and rounded without any notches!
| RARE! Vince maker marked on the ricasso! Some pitting and surface rust, to be expected. This is one of those rare Klewang's where in the very late 30's the blade was produced by Vince (a U.S.-based company) for the Netherlands government. |
