BRITISH WWII 1ST PATTERN FAIRBAIRN SYKES KNIFE.
A good clean example of the now rare and highly desirable 1s pattern Fairbairn Sykes knife. The blade is full length, minor spotting to the blade, good clear ‘The FS Fighting Knife’ and ‘Wilkinson Sword’ logo either side of the upper forte of the blade. Standard S shaped cross guard, which has lost some of its plating. Good condition machine turned grip, in its original 1st pattern scabbard with rounded nickel lower chape. The hilt retaining leather strap has been replaced. The date ’30.11.42’ hand inscribed into the leather on the rear of the upper part of the scabbard.
