WW2 British Private Purchase Fighting Knife - Popular With Commando's & US Troops

An original WW2 Sheffield-made ''Taylor Eye Witness'' fighting knife and scabbard, these stiletto bladed knives were purchased from private/commercial suppliers and were very popular with British commando's and US troops based in Britain prior to D-Day.
The grip is formed using pressed leather washers and held firm by the correct wartime brass pommel, the 6 3/4 inch double edged blade is in good used condition and does have some light age related blemishes plus evidence of sharpening, also bears the company logo of an eye, the original leather scabbard is missing its small retaining strap but the belt loops are fine, some period done repairs to side stitching.
This pattern of fighting knife has now become difficult to source due to there being more and more photographic evidence coming forward of these knives being used by British/Commonwealth & US troops plus the ever rising value of Fairbairn Sykes knives.
Please study the images in regards to condition.
Sorry Mainland UK sale only, Photo I.D will be required before item being despatched, over 18 yrs of age.
