The History Knife & Tool Commando Dagger revives one of the most iconic combat knife designs of the 20th century: the legendary Fairbairn-Sykes Fighting Knife. Originally developed by Lt. Col. William E. Fairbairn and Major E. A. Sykes in Shanghai and officially adopted in 1941, this timeless blade became the trusted companion of elite Allied forces - including the SOE, SAS, and OSS.
Authentic 3rd-Pattern Design (1943 Onward)
This faithful recreation follows the classic 3rd-pattern proportions, meticulously crafted to honor the form and function of the original:
Blade: Narrow, double-edged, medium-point profile measuring 18 cm (≈7.1")
Guard & Handle: Straight oval guard with jimped aluminum spindle handle and through tang
Finish: Fully blackened components for the correct wartime appearance
Sheath: Hand-stitched dark-brown leather with studded patch plate, twin belt studs, 20 mm rubber retention strap, and optional attachment straps
Crafted for History and Heritage
Forged from durable 420 stainless steel, the blade offers strength, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance - ensuring lasting performance while preserving authenticity. Each dagger is handcrafted with historical precision, making it an essential piece for collectors, reenactors, and military history enthusiasts.
This dagger is phenomenal!
I just received mine today and oh my gosh, it is absolutely beautiful! The craftsmanship is amazing and the heft on this historic blade is impressive. It is needle sharp and quite literally the greatest knife i have ever owned! Thank you!!
