Definitely a fake. The very thin F and S is a dead give-away.
Same with the font of the "I" stamped into the crossguard - not a font that
I would expect. Also----I'm not sure that have ever seen a India stamped
crossguard in conjunction with Wilkinson etched blade.

Good point Greg. The Indian contract knives were 3rd Pattern from October 1943. The mark itself is incorrect as well.
thanks guys , real hard to get good info , big thanks to all .
