 Description:
The Classic Type D MOD British Army Knife is a tool of craftsmanship, forged in Sheffield, England, a city renowned for its centuries-long tradition of cutlery and blade-making. Produced by an experienced bladesmith, this knife embodies historical reverence, and encapsulates collector-grade artistry.
 
Blade and Material
The knife features a 7-inch blade crafted from O1 carbon tool steel, a material prized for its exceptional edge retention, strength, and ease of sharpening. O1 steel is a high-carbon alloy known for its durability and ability to hold a razor-sharp edge, making it ideal for a commando knife designed for rugged use. The blade boasts a sleek, black polished finish, providing corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity under demanding conditions.
 
Design and Construction
It's built with a full tang construction, where the blade’s tang extends all the way through the handle. This design balances weight and durability, offering a lighter feel without compromising structural integrity. The handle is hardwood, providing a secure, utilitarian grip that molds to the hand over time. It's suitable for outdoor use.
 
The knife is accented with Copper rivets, which add a touch of elegance while serving practical purposes. The steel guard protects the hand from slipping onto the blade during heavy use, while the pommel provides balance and can be used as a striking tool if needed. The copper develops a natural patina over time, giving each knife a unique, personalized character.
 
Craftsmanship and Heritage
Crafted in Sheffield, a city synonymous with cutlery excellence since the 17th century, the Army Knife carries the legacy of generations of skilled bladesmiths. The manufacturer employs traditional techniques alongside modern standards to create a blade that is a functional work of art.
 
Performance and Use
With its 11.81-inch overall length, the Army Knife is a robust yet manageable tool. The drop point blade excels in slicing and chopping, making it versatile for camping, or other applications. The sturdy wooden handle and balanced construction ensure comfort during extended use, while the included brown leather belt sheath allows for secure carry, with a cutout slip for vertical belt attachment on either side.
 
Please note: Due to this knife's large size, the knife does not have an official box. We will send it in whatever fits.
