Yes, at least they had the #9 blade...Like the the Bridge too Far when the Germans came to capture the remaining Paras carrying M1 rifles...

Those 'Germans' were Irish......hence the use of the No.4, as it had only just been withdrawn from front line service in the Irish Defence Force when the Blue Max was filmed.

One of the pirates in The Golden Compass has a No5. There seems to be a lot of Mauser M71 (or similar) used in the film as well.
