The WWII Basilone Collector Series is a limited five-knife release built around some of the most significant battles of World War II.
Each knife starts with the same proven Basilone platform and features a different historically researched battle-map engraving across the blade. Every design was drafted, revised, tested, and engraved in-house at Buttonhook Forge, with the goal of creating something that carries the history without sacrificing what the knife was built to be: a hard-use working tool.
Only one knife was made for each battle:
Iwo Jima
Omaha Beach
Peleliu
Tarawa
Bastogne
Each knife is paired with its own matching engraved metal display plaque featuring the corresponding battlefield map and historical information, making the knife and plaque a complete collector set.

Blade Length: Approximately 5"
Overall Length: Approximately 10.5"
Spine Thickness: Approximately .150"
