I'm on vacation for the Thanksgiving holiday. My sister and I went antiquing and I picked up my 1st Original British commando knife. Thanks to the modern age was able to get help from friend and research before I got it. I am so pleased with this one. Broad arrow proof mark on handle, a 4 under that, missing the tabs on scabbard but otherwise excellent!The price was a steal at $285.

 Some more photos of the WW2 P2 Beaded and ribbed handle British Fairbairn–Sykes Commando knife I picked up in Utah. Did some research. I dont believe this one is a Wilkinson made piece, may be a J. Clarke & Son. About 1941. It is a "Bring back" piece, not an import.
