Thanked: 1 Very Proud of This One
I was lucky enough to snag one of those from E-Bay a short while ago also. The one I got had never been honed and was new/old stock. It was in the paper wrapper and beautiful!
I too had seen Army and Navy straights out there and figured there had to be a Marine one somewhere. When I saw the USMC Clauss I submitted a max bid and got it as a "second chance" offer. I was tickled pink.
The Clauss honed up very nicely and maintains its sharpness very well. It has become my favorite, hedging out my W&B notch point and my Red Bismark.
Your friend will really appreciate the thoughtfullness of your gift.

I finished cleaning it up last night and I do believe you are right. I cant see any hone wear at all.... I think this might have a very lucky buy on a hidden away NOS...

That is one heck of a razor and very thoughtful too.
I hope your buddy from the Corps enjoys your gift.
