Review: Excellent blade; a lot of history - This dagger is a genuine, modern (not an antique but created in precisely the same way) creation of the Fairbairn-Sykes blade. It's a dagger, not a knife - so don't expect to use it as a regular knife. Well crafted & looks and feels great. Strongly recommend for anyone who is considering owning a piece of history but is looking for a new one, instead of hunting down an old one. I've had multiple versions of this dagger before, but you can tell this one is by far the most accurate and easily worth the price. This version is the most accurate, balanced, and possesses the highest quality. If you're in the United States, customs can prove to be interesting, but the seller is incredibly great at working with you to ensure the item arrives.
Review: Authentic and solid - If you’re a collector, this is the FS you’ve been looking for. Construction is as solid as these get, fit and finish is genuine. Customer service and speed of delivery was stellar, and the shop owner shipped it sharp at my request, doing a better job on the edge than a more expensive version I once bought. The handle is nicely knurled and pleasantly absent the off-kilter casting seams of lesser versions. It is very solid in the hand with a nice balance. Things to know: You guys, this is a genuine issue, munitions-grade Fairbairn-Sykes. It’s an old-school tool of war, designed for regular carry and with a singular purpose. If you’re looking for a high-end safe queen custom blade, this ain’t it. Fit and finish are exactly appropriate for mil-spec. And yes, even though Fairbairn advocates cuts to the hand, arm, leg, and neck, the edge geometry has never allowed for excellence in anything but going straight in. Even “the best” of this design doesn’t slice tomatoes worth a damn. Some folks have complained about the sheaths. Again, it’s genuine, and as good an example of one as you’ll find. Very workable if you understand the features. But if you understand and appreciate these blades for what they are, this is the one to get.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid build, excellent quality. A weapon, not some new flavor-of-the-month “EDC” blade
*by L***. on April 24, 2025*

Excellent. Heavy, with a point that feels like one could probably pound it through a sheet of steel. To all of those moaning about the edges…The F-S isn’t some new flavor-of-the-month “EDC” blade to carry around. It’s not designed for cutting rope, carboard, or your Philly cheesesteak sandwich. It’s an assassin's stabbing weapon, a tool for ambushing the unsuspecting. It’s shaped to stab. Straight up under the chin. Straight down behind the collarbone to sever the subclavian artery. Straight through heavy clothing to the heart from the front, and the kidney or the base of the skull from the rear. Some OSS and SAS folks ground down one side of the handle to prevent it turning when covered with blood. Sharpen the edges if you want. They’re pretty steeply beveled, and it’s really a waste of time.
