British Army/Navy issue pocket knife.

[Axbent]

Do all originals have stampings? I just got one w o any markings at all. Its well made and solid, but lacks back lock, and rope tool.

[moleman1961]

@Axbent I would think all the forces issued ones were stamped.

Got one made in 1945, doesn't have the Marlinspike though.

This style and make of knife is still used today by the British Army.

hi moley,i have one of those,was issued to me and when i came out it stayed with me lol,,it is cavelary issue.

[moleman1961]

nice one! Thanks!

[dynamicz108]

Wow this is a lot larger than i thought it would be

cheers

[mazadan]

the pocket knife is the same pattern that i was issued with when i was in the army.

though i was not in a cavalry regiment it is a cavalry knife due to the spike for taking foreign matter out of horses hooves

[wulfesinger67]

@mazadan the spike was originally used for splicing ropes and working lose knots , its called a marlin spike. being a farrier i would use a spike unless i had too to remove stones there is a great chance of going to deep and injuring the hoof. before you get your feathers ruffled im not saying it couldnt be used as a pickjust stating it original use. these style of knifes can still be bought new today from many boat and sailing supply houses

[moleman1961]

@wulfesinger67 I have smooth feathers! Thanks for that and thanks for watching!

Great Review, lovely old Knife.

Mike.

[moleman1961]

Cheers! got it at a good price too!

[nylecrane2k7]

@moleman1961 How much did you pay?

[moleman1961]

@nylecrane2k7 It needed cleaning up a bit so the dealer let me have it for £5!

[nylecrane2k7]

@moleman1961 Good deal, the 1945 model that I've got in a similar condition cost between 50p and £1.50 from a car boot sale (I can't remember exactly as I bought it about 3 years ago).
