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,
Patricio

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

Guess I might as well, huh. 
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.
