Hello
I am extremely knew here, This is my first thread in fact. I have always loved the old style of of British army folding knives with the black-diamond scales on the handle. In fact I have several in my possession and have always wondered if there were modern made folding knives which look like the originals and are still functional. So far after some digging around I have found 3 possible contenders;
-The first (and the one I am leaning to so far) is this one:
I like the single blade style and the black handle scales however it is a locking blade which isn't legal here in the UK and if possible I'd try to avoid that.
-The second contender is this one,
perhaps the most faithful to the originals however I am ideally looking for an option with no spike (the proper name escapes me) as from what i believe this was for the Navy issued knives only and my favourite knife is a "2 piece" with just a blade and can opener
-
The final option strikes me possibly as a better made version of the previous but with no can opener, this looks ideal apart from again the spike.
I was wondering if any of you guys had come across anything in terms of modern British army folding knives or if not if any of you had come across any of these 3 knives and could speak of their quality. Any insight would be greatly appreciated, Thank you
