I´m pretty interested if the "Nóż szturmowy Wojska Polskiego wz. 55" solely was issued in polish Para units, or, also in other units of the Polish Armed Forces !

Is there anybody out there having further informations ? ...

As far, as I, (meanwhile), know, the Nóż szturmowy Wojska Polskiego wz.55 also was introduced in polish police units, also, AFAIK, in an special unit of the polish border guard.

I also heard, this pattern combat knife is still in use in the polish armed forces as a, private purchased, sidearm.

Rumors say, the wz.55. also was introduced in units of the border police of the, former, GDR.

The Wz.55. was manufactured by Fabryka Broni "Łucznik" Radom ( Państwowe Zakłady Metalowe Łucznik ).
