Just some trivia - probably called a 'Punch Nose' because of Punch & Judy puppets. Punch's nose was/is bulbous......

SMF logo is original, but the blade was destroyed by excessive polishing, and buffer pad is replaced.

thanks vedran
This 1st pattern SMF is ok.
Although it has a replaced bufferpad i think the blade is ok.
SMF used polished nickel plated blades on their first pattern nickel silver daggers.
So i cant see this one is polished dead, still a lot of shine on that polished nickel plated blade left.
I don't share Verdrans opinion.
Regards,
Ger

Gerrit is correct in saying this is a nickel plated blade. A shine like this is completely normal, most likely been shined up a tad but this is how they are.
Thinking back we never got to the bottom of the gravity knife originally posted which must be a first. Needs to be in the near perfect repro's if its bad guys as this ones worth seeing imo.
