USMC 

AKA

United shoe

machinery company 

This is one that pops up on ebay every so often, they used to spring up at gun shows as well. This is a very old point of confusion that has been around as long as I can remember. These range from potato peeling knives to razors to board axes used in the age of sail. I have heard so many stories on these it could be it's own book. Well we have dedicated a page to it, next time someone claims they have a rare USMC super secret behind the lines spy utensil shoot them a link to this page. And while you are at it tell them to Google the United Shoe Machinery Company as well. Or just go here http://www.cummings.com/history.html
