    Description
    Fairbairn Sykes fighting knife
    Made by J. Nowill & Sons of Sheffield, England
    Knurled brass handle, painted black
    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

    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. Often purchased today by officers of the Royal Marines and Parachute Regiment or as "Presentation knives"
    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.
