Review: A Premium Quality, Exactly Correct Strong Knife, Built By People Who Understand. - This Knife (especially for it's low price) is not just correctly designed and built, it's created by a craftsman who understands it's singular purpose. It's a dagger. I have a serious knife collection but wanted to replace two stolen units. This one is replacing both of them. A true military dagger is made to pierce the skin, slide between the ribs, and pierce the heart, etc. If the sides are sharp they can get stuck on the rib bones and defeat their purpose. The tip is sharp, the blade is made of very high quality metal, and the width is the best possible size for it's purpose, and thickness is enough to maintain maximum strength. I'm not suggesting people run around using this knife improperly, exactly the opposite. If you are in the military, and want to be properly prepared, you'd be foolish to go into battle without one. Take what they give you but bring one of these with you. You won't find a better knife for this, anywhere. I know, I looked. I understand knives, it's a personal thing, and I know quality. You can't buy this for less, period. I'm ex-military (if there actually is such a thing; once you are, you are), I know how to use them and this unit is strong, powerful in the right hands.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the factory sharpen the edges?**
A: This blade comes factory sharpened.

**Q: Is the blade sharpened at the factory?**
A: Be warned- the seller claiming that it should not be sharpened shows that he or she does not know how to create a true fairbairn sykes knife. To quote the inventor himself: "...It is essential that the blade have a sharp stabbing point and good cutting edges, because an artery torn through (as against a clean cut) tends to contract and stop the bleeding..." and then goes on to describe using the knife to cut as well as thrust.

**Q: if asked nicely would the maker use brass for the handle or do they sell a brass handled version?**
A: Yes it’s for sale on my Amazon items
Regards 
Lee

**Q: Do you make a V-42 style?**
A: Sorry no

Lee

Well made. Proper markings.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Implement
*by M***C on May 8, 2024*

I ordered this primarily for home defense and couldn’t be more satisfied with this knife. Well crafted, sturdy, exactly as described, and well sharpened on all edges down to the hilt. Packaging and shipping were superb, even the package would make a substantial deterrent. Highly recommended and even a business card from Sheffield Cutlery Director Lee Idell, nice touch IMO.
