WW-II Agent's Daggers

Its been a while since I came here to talk about anything besides politics. So I hope a few of you have hung around. I really apologize but it has been so hard seeing our nation destroyed piece by piece.

Here are a couple very neat Agent's daggers from WW-II. They are described in more detail on our website www.fairbairnsykesfightingknives.com The top one is by WSC and has a nicely lathe turned walnut handle with 3 groups of five rings. There are other examples of this very same pattern extant. The oval steel guard is blued and the sleek blade is heat colored/tempered to a light bronze color.

The lower knife is a modern looking piece made by John Paisley (J.P) with ebony handle slabs held in place by brass pins. The sheath of this knife gives the impression of having been worn and displays sweat discoloration. The blade shape on this one is also replicated in other knives by J.P and one which I have on reserve marked only with a "4".

These hide-away knives were weapons of last resort. The overall sizes are about the same as a Gerber Guardian or a MK-I . I have really found this genre of WW-II knives to be exciting and little covered by most of the books on commando or other WW-II fighting knives. I am slowly grinding away on my book on FS knives and it will have a chapter dedicated to these and other clandestine knives.

He wants to do what?

Comrade wants to give away what? That's right control of the internet to the Russians and the Chinese. It makes perfect sense doesn't it? Tell Vlad after I am re-elected I will have more flexibility.

Living in Fear?

How many Americans do you know who are living with fear? Afraid of being audited by the IRS, targeted by the DHS, violating EPA mandates, waiting for your health care to vanish, being fined by Obamacare for NOT buying a shoddy government policy, having your identity stolen or your computer hacked by the NSA, being targeted for being a Christian of pro-life supporter, called a racist and having your right to free-speech shutdown! I could go on and on and we are living with this every day now under the oppressive tyranny that has become Amerika. I have always been a responsible gun owner and obeyed all the laws. I have never committed a crime, although a few have been perpetrated on me by the "New York SAFE act." I have always practiced gun safety and kept my firearms secured. Because I owned guns I was also concerned that someone might try to break in and steal them. So I bought a gun safe at great expense. Then I installed a burglar system knowing that when your life could be lost in seconds the cops were only minutes away. Due to the size of our county they usually arrive just in time to write up the crime report. But in America I NEVER considered the cops might be the first ones on the scene, that they might be the perpetrators, the ones to kick down my door and steal my legally purchased firearms. That was before the new Amerika, the police state we live in today. No Dorothy, we are not in Mayberry USA anymore.
