Böker Germany Applegate-Fairbairn Combat II פגיון 120543AF

This is a historically-significant knife. It is available in a number of versions from Boker via Lamnia, who are an efficient seller of Boker knives and who provide speedy delivery. This knife is the Second Pattern of the original knife, which was designed by Rex Applegate and Captain Fairbairn as a "second generation" fighting knife, with the intention that it would replace the Fairbairn-Sykes Commando Dagger. It didn't end up replacing the Commando Dagger (which is still on sale in its Third Pattern design and is issued to the British Royal Marines Commandos as their "ceremonial issue" fighting knife, although it is seldom carried in battle these days). The idea of this knife was that it should be as effective as the Commando Dagger, but with a substantially more robust blade and fitted with a brass cross-guard. The knife is engraved/etched on the blade with the signatures of the two men who designed it, and it was used by the original American Special Forces (although they were referred to as the OSS at the time). It is a working, beautifully-made piece of history. Ironically, the makers (Boker) are German, but their workmanship is superb and makes them a worthy manufacturer of the knife. I had to have one for my collection. Five Stars.

Best dagger in the world.Very fast service.Thank you!

Classic dagger in the Applegate-Fairbairn style but with a broader blade and stronger point

Splendide. I love this one, because of its balance. Grip feeling is also good, and very sharp !

I love the quality feel and everything about this knife. The history of it is something that most other knives are unable to match. This is a collectors item. Everything from the packing, delivering time and costumer service is spot on. I also love this shop. They are giving us a superb selection of quality items. And it is a European company. Full score 💯
