Any Australian Military Knife Experts On Here ?

[merl67]

My thrift store finds today gran total $20 plus tax. Two fairly nice Case ones a modern Kissing Crane, and a bunch of junk ones.
The Australian one is made by East Bros Sydney. It has no acceptance marks I can find. The scabbard is made by Goldseal 1942, and has the broad arrow H.B. acceptance mark. The only information I can find suggests these were made for Australian, and some U.S. soldiers not too much info on value other than one lone example on Ebay, and information is appreciated.

That Australian knife is a scarce one. Its hard to see everything from your image but I think you scored. Of course condition is everything but Im thinking a few hundred at least.
