Original World War II Chinese dagger paired with a Flying Tigers–era blood chit. The dagger represents a wartime Chinese military or personal sidearm from the 1940s period. It features a fixed blade design typical of the era, with construction and materials consistent with field-issued or locally produced edged weapons used during the conflict. The blade and hilt show the utilitarian configuration associated with wartime manufacture, and the piece retains its historical form without apparent later modification described.
The accompanying blood chit dates to the same period, linked to the American Volunteer Group known as the Flying Tigers, who operated in China before and during early U.S. involvement in World War II. Blood chits were carried by pilots and personnel to identify them as friendly forces to local civilians, often printed with Chinese text requesting assistance and safe return. This set reflects material culture from a significant wartime collaboration between Chinese forces and Allied aviators. The dagger is used, consistent with its age and historical context.
Both items are presented together as original artifacts from the World War II Chinese theater. The dagger and blood chit are offered as a matched historical grouping from the Flying Tigers era.
