FAIRBAIRN-SYKES FIGHTING KNIFE Fine example of a double-edged stiletto-style fighting knife, 6 1/4" blade, 11 1/4" overall, with a blackened checked vase-shaped brass grip, an oval hand guard and no ricasso. The blade is etched "The F-S Fighting Knife" on one side, and with the maker's name "Wilkinson Sword Co. Ltd. London" on the other. Unusually, the blade of this example has been left "in the white"; the majority were blackened along with the grip. The knife is housed in a replacement black-painted steel scabbard with a brown leather belt loop, not original to the dagger. The blade bears minor oxidation with slight pitting, and a few run marks, while the black coating of the handle is rubbed thin in a few areas, else very good. These knives were designed by William Fairbairn and Eric Sykes, instructors in close-combat fighting at the Commando Basic Training Centre in Scotland. The knife came to be most closely associated with the British Commandos, but was also used by British and Canadian Airborne troops, the SAS, the American OSS and Army Rangers, and some U.S. Marine units. It remains one of the most instantly recognizable fighting knife styles.
1929 ROLLS-ROYCE - PHANTOM II WITH BARREL-SIDED TOURER COACHWORK BY WILKINSON OF DERBY. Chassis No: 99 XJ Engine No: PR 35 Registration No: TL 972 Date of first registration: December/January 1929/30 Specification: 7,300cc 6-cylinders in-line single overhead valve 40/50HP rated motor; four-speed manual gearbox with live rear-axle: leaf-sprung suspension fore & aft; four-wheel servo-assisted mechanical brakes. Colour Scheme: Maroon coachwork with black wings and burgundy leather interior; black double-duck hood and weather equipment; nickel-plated lamps and fittings. History: According to RREC Factory Records this car was originally an open touring car with coachwork by Thrupp & Maberley order no. R2706 dated 1st November 1929, delivered to a Mr. G.W. Henderson of Chesham Place, London W1. In March 1930. The comprehensive specification documentation from these records indicates regular servicing, maintenance & repairs carried out by the works until 1936; further information shows the replacement barrel-sided tourer body by Wilkinsons of Derby being fitted just prior to the outbreak of war in 1939. From V5 and V5C documentation, it shows the car was acquired by the late owner in late 1989, and there is a comprehensive file of further documentation showing extensive bills for regular servicing, running repairs & maintenance, from several marque specialists including Hoffmans of Henley and Priory Vintage Car Company, and further including a recent major engine & mechanical rebuild during 2008/2009, with significant sums of expenditure including new cylinder head and cylinder-blocks replacement, as well as other major components. Condition: The car as currently presented appears to be in superb order, both as to paintwork, interior trim and excellent weatherproof hood and ancillaries. The nickel-plating is in good condition and there are additional CAV "Divers Helmet" rear-lamps fitted to accommodate electrical indicators within such period fittings. There is a large fitted trunk to rear with tools to upper compartment and stowage for tonneau-cover and related sundries. At time of cataloguing the car was heard to run very well and has always been maintained to be used regularly and often at a moment's notice, and has participated in many rallying and road-run events in its current ownership`
