WWII British Ribbed & Beaded F/S Fighting Knife

Scarce WW2 British ordnance issued ribbed & beaded fighting knife which is still housed in its correct & original wartime pattern leather scabbard, the brass handle/grip displays 9 rows of beads along with a No.2 & broad arrow stamping.
The blade has a slightly re-profiled tip and now measures 6 5/8 ths in length, there is evidence of cleaning & sharpening to the blade which is now honed to a razor sharp cutting edge.
The steel cross guard has no movement, nice vice/tightening mark to tang nut.
The scabbard has had the tabs removed during its service which is always a good indication that it`s a `been there' example, the elasticated retainer now broken.
Priced accordingly due to tip re-profiling.
Sorry UK sale ONLY and proof of age will be required (18+)
