Another X-Dagger?

Coming soon to a website near you out latest addition to the collection. This knife was obviously owned by Harold A. Brown during WW-II. We have tracked his service number 20153409 to be in a range issued to someone in the Army National Guard inducted in New England. If you have any tips on how to narrow down the service number to a real person and their military service I would appreciate an email or post a message here. email is ghdave2@hotmail.com
 The knife has all of the characteristics of a knife made from a bayonet but, until I have it in my hand I will not be able to verify that. It could just be a custom made knife. Who ever made it was quite skilled. In the next few days I will have photos posted on our Fairbairn sykes website.

OCTOBER 17th

Mark this day on your calendars and in your diaries as the day the deal was done, the government was reopened, the two party system died and congress became totally irrelevant! Mark it so you can tell your children when we passed from a republic to a dictatorship, from a voice of reason to a government of treason, and a warning to shut up or face the consequences. Liberty is dead, Tyranny thrives.
