The Fairbairn-Sykes Fighting Knife is an iconic blade adopted by elite militaries worldwide. Issued knife to Royal Marine Commandos, so as a nod of respect to prior military service and now future endeavors, we are taking the Ministry of Defence Fairbairn-Sykes Knives and applying our Blackout Carbide to the hilt for maximum traction in all environments. These are MOD knives made in England as denoted by the “Crows Foot” insignia on the base of the pommel.
