A distinct piece of Vietnam War era cutlery history: The Garcia Survival Knife. Manufactured in Brazil, this knife was produced as a lighter, more accessible successor to the Finnish Hackman Survival Knife, filling the void left by the scarcity of the Randall Model 18. It features a 3/16" stainless steel blade and a hollow, waterproof handle designed to store survival essentials like matches, hooks, or pills. Clearly marked with the Garcia logo and "BRAZIL". Comes with the original leather sheath.

Very nice liner for M-65 jacket from 1969 - contract DSA 100-69-C-2489.. Liner has double seams. Liner is in used but nice condition.

A pristine example of the Vietnam War era M1967 Entrenching Tool (E-Tool). This is the revolutionary "Tri-Fold" all-metal design that replaced the wooden-handled shovels. Manufactured by AMES, clearly stamped 1969. It comes paired with an original carrier dated 1970. The set is in Unissued / New Old Stock (NOS) condition, retaining its original finish. Hard to find in this state.

A very successful reproduction of the famous Tiger Stripe Boonie Hat, synonymous with US Special Forces and LRRPs during the Vietnam War. Made from 100% cotton, avoiding the shiny look of cheap synthetic copies. This hat will fade naturally over time for a "battle-hardened" look. An excellent, cost-effective alternative to rare originals for field use. Size Medium (fits 57-58 cm head circumference).

Museum-quality 1969 M-65 Field Jacket. Owned by USAF Brigadier General Kelly. Features Command Pilot wings and USAFE patch. Aluminum zippers. Unissued/Mint condition. Rare size Large-Long.

Lightly used M1967 USMC Combat Field Pack. Year of manufacture 1970. Very nice condition. Rubber collar is in good condition..

The M1967 USMC Combat Field Pack nylon pack was designed by the Marine Corps Airborne Forces Development Center as a replacement for the M1941 Haversack.1 The design of the pack evolved from the experimental XM1964 Haversack and featured two external pockets in addition to the main storage compartment, which had a waterproof rubberized collar. The top flap had two side strap hinges and one in the middle for attaching a blade carrier.

When matching USMC M1967 straps were used with the gear belt, the pack was worn on the back by attaching the top loops to the shoulder hooks of the straps and connecting the pack carabiners to the carabiners on the straps. Alternatively, it could have been worn as a backpack by connecting the front and back sling straps to the D-rings on the bottom of the pack.

A rare experimental garment with elite provenance. These "Trousers, Man's, Combat, Temperate" (Contract 7914) come directly from the estate of a US Special Forces veteran. The trousers are in a unique condition: laundered and then subjected to an extreme "Heavy Starch", making the fabric board-stiff with razor-sharp creases. This represents the classic "Strac" appearance maintained by SF troopers in garrison during the Vietnam era.
