British Army Fairbairn Sykes Commando knife, 2nd pat. Brass handle, black blade
British Army Fairbairn Sykes Commando fighting knife, 2nd pattern. Nowill & Sons of Sheffield, England. Stamped into the guard is the famous "Broad Arrow" British Army acceptance mark proving this to be a genuine British Army issue item.

7 inch carbon steel blade with black finish. Carbon steel can oxidize so we recommend inspecting the blade occasionally & wiping it down with an oily cloth. Overall length of knife approximately 12 inches. Comes with genuine top quality thick leather sheath with reinforced steel tip and tabs.

This pattern was issued to Army Commando's, members of the Parachute Regiment and the LRDG (forerunner of the SAS) during WWII. This is a brand new production knife. In 2019 a member of the British SBS (Special Boat Service) is reported to have taken on two ISIS fighters with his Fairbairn-Sykes Commando knife during house to house fighting when his weapon was knocked out of his hands. He dispatched one and the other fled. NOT FOR SALE IN CALIFORNIA.
