When I was in central Fl, I saw one of them in a pawn shop. Great condition but not WW11 issue. Had a Wilkenson (?) stamp near the pummel and a name in a banner just above it. I believe it said Bobbie Kennedy (No puns)

What was I looking at? Wanted $245 for it. They wanted me to make an offer but I declined

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Why do you think it wasn't WWII? The banner with the persons name was an option offered by Wilkinson on private purchase knives.

I just did not know enough about the dagger and it was in such good shape. Still for sale though. As before, they wanted me to make an offer for it. Interested? Send me a email and I will give you its location Thanks for the information....
