 Description:

The J. Nowill & Sons Golden Crown Commando Knife is a modern reproduction of the historic Fairbairn-Sykes (F-S) knife, crafted by J. Nowill & Sons, a Sheffield-based company with over 300 years of knife-making expertise since 1700. Designed by John Adams Ltd., the Wasp pattern honors the F-S knife used by British Commandos and SAS during World War II. It features a 7-inch double-edged stainless steel blade, ideal for piercing, with a polished finish that emphasizes its collectible appeal.

The Golden Crown Commando Knife is distinguished by its unique handle, blending brass with black fiber or aluminum for an ergonomic and visually appealing grip, differing from the traditional F-S knurled or ringed designs. It comes with a black leather belt sheath, and is built with hidden tang construction for durability. Hand-finished in Sheffield, the knife often carries J. Nowill & Sons’ maker’s marks, such as “D*” or “KROSSKEYS,” and sometimes the British military broad arrow, adding to its historical charm.

Primarily a collectible, the Wasp Commando Knife is prized by enthusiasts for its craftsmanship and connection to the F-S legacy. Its aesthetic design and high-quality materials make it a standout display piece rather than a tool for everyday use. The knife’s historical significance and Sheffield heritage contribute to its value among collectors, though availability is limited due to the hand-finishing process and high demand. Its premium gift box enhances its appeal.
