A knife similar to the Applegate Fairbain Combat II?

If I were going to spend that much on a dagger I would look at the Randall model 2, or just have someone make one for me.

Man it's gone up in price significantly it's not even funny. I'm interested in adding one to my collection but not at a $200+ expense.

 

I hear you. The Bokers have gotten significantly more expensive over the past couple of years. But if the OP wants a real A-F, he'll have to pay. In my experience, there are other daggers and even a few better daggers, but there's no real substitute for the genuine A-F.

I have a Boker Applegate-Fairbairn that my son got in the fall of 2004 for about $100. Now I see the "Combat II". Is there any difference or are they just twice as expensive?
