Hi everyone sorry i don't have the facilities to paste a pic but i will describe the knife as best I can.
It belonged to my Grandfather who was a British Paratrooper in WWII.
The knife is a black model i think, there is a '1' stamped on the top of the handle and the pattern of the handle is round circles not the knurling i usually see in pictures.
Its stamped 'B2' but i can't see any broadarrow or england stamps.
I had thought it to be a 2nd Pattern B2 variant, is this the case? I can't find any pictures of that type with a handle like mine and those with the knurled handle seem to have the '2' at the top not '1'.
any help appreciated, thanks
EDIT: further research leads me to believe the blade is hand ground if that helps, it has the v-shaped wedge at the top
