I bought a reproduction of the famous WWII British commando knife.Doubled edged 6 or 7 inch blade..I don`t remember.It should be here today I hope.It is going with me when I leave for the shithole of the world.
Looks to be a good knife and well made.Anodized 440 SS with leather sheath from Atlanta Cutlery..

Couldn't find the stainlees steel model but I suppose it looks like one of these:

They look like good "PIG" stickers to me.
Are you going to be able to take a digital camera with a 4 megabyte memory card?

Talk about taking edge.It is a pure tough combat knife.Only good for one thing but it will do its job when called on..
Damned good blade..

Timberghozt.....
Ya gonna hate me.......
Got this from a Brit Corporal back in 1980 when I was attached to 6/7th Battalion, The Queens Regiment as a Weapons/Tactics Instructor. Original sheath has long since bit the dust and replaced by a commerical one.
Life was grand when one was young.

As I started scrolling down I thought it was going to be attached to a press for a handle.

For those that don`t know.Mortis`s name is latin for "death".
When I was young lots of my bros had tatoos with the words "SCOUT" or "RECON" above a laughing skull with the words beneath..Silens Mortalis..Silent Death.
Cool name and blade bro..
