    Default FS fighting knife first pattern

    Hey guys I'm new to this forum. Been reading this forum for a couple years now. Thought I'd share a couple of my items that I have so far in my collection. This dagger was my grandfathers. He was a British commando in World War 2. Who brought this dagger back which was issued to him. It was past down to my father who just passed it on to me not too long ago. Within the first 10 minutes I had looked up the markers and found out it was first pattern FS fighting knife. I started to read some information to my dad well this dagger which we both didn't have an idea on too much of its history other than it was issued to my grandpa. Found out it was quite cool dagger. I love it, after reading about it I was so excited to own a piece of my family's history. Man that looks like a deadly dagger! Definitely well made dagger. Extremely solid. Anyways here's some pictures. Done with my phone so best that i could get.

    That's a great dagger and having the family connection makes it even better.

    Very nice, the 1st pattern is the "Rolls Royce" of FS knives and being a family item is an extra bonus!

    Cheers, Ade.
