    Sykes Fairbairn

    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

    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....
