Thanks R3V3LATIONS. Al Mar designed Gerber Mark II and then this Shadow dagger, both based in the FS.
Al Mar also made a copy of the original Fairbairn-Skykes.

Best regards,

Here is one. M3 Trench Knife. Used by Paratroopers for the D-Day Invasion.

Nice one, Kgoerz. Is that a surplus or reproduction?

Here's an original Camillus pilots survival knife. The pilot actually wrote his name on the sheath, this one dated back to Vietnam era.

Its a reproduction made by Broker Knives. I lost my original. I jammed it into the Tread of the Tiger Tank that was rolling over my Fox Hole:D

Well did it stop the tank?

Snapped it like a Tooth Pick

Damn, I figured as much. I guess if your gonna lose one, that's one of the better ways to do it, huh.

You do know I am kidding. I didn't fight in WWII.

LOL! I didn't see any pink text, so I didn't question.............. now that I've pulled both feet out of my mouth......yeah, seein' it pretty clear now. Ah, well.:D

I have a bridge for sale... wanna buy it?

Guess I might as well, huh.:p

Got my Grandpah's ka-bar from WWII. Or the blade from it, rather. It's in Godawful shape after a couple generations. Looks like someone tried to "modify" it at some point. I'll post a pic here pretty soon.

It mighta been "modified" by him. I've seen a lot of knives in person which were made by vets in the field or just something to keep themselves busy. Would love to see the knife though.
