Rare & Interesting ‘Issued’ Wilkinson ⩚B2/FR693 Second Pattern F-S Fighting Knife

A very interesting historical Second Pattern. This Wilkinson MoS contract knife has the correct wartime ⩚B2 inspection/ownership stamp but also has the 1964 Admiralty stores code of FR693. This indicated that this F-S remained ‘in-stores’ post-war and was stamped with the new Admiralty code in 1964. The condition would indicate it was subsequently issued, carried and used. Most of the finish has gone but the blade remains at its full length just shy of 6 7/8”. The pommel nut is original and untouched. Of course ‘no’ import stamp, as this one remained in stores with the Royal Marine Commandos up until it’s use post 1964. A fascinating original wartime Wilkie with post war history.

Code #00710

Shipping is charged at a flat rate of $20 within the US and $35 for international (outside of the US).
