Here are a couple of the nicest knives ever in my meagre collection.
The fat one is a older Busse the classic SH-E and the skinny one is the best of all the FS dagger s the WW2 second pattern MOD model. Some people like the first pattern but the second is simpler and better balanced. The ringed handle ones are a good knife but no where near as well balanced and grippy as the first and second pattern.

Here is a great photo of the FS in it's proper use. Things have gotten so bad in UK society that even discussing the historical use of the FS or even the training which is one of the most important parts of British history is not allowed on the British blades site.

If you think you get ribbing for the gillie suit imagine what you would get wearing this.

I have the SMLE though.

Here is a great military knife. I used to have a great write up by the owner about how Swamprat made the knife special for the Canadian combat engineers but Putfile erased it.<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" />
