Great collection Tranter... :cheers:

I bought one by Wilkinson Sword during a trip years ago... May I ask where did you source the Indian ones from ? The army used to make them years ago for presentation during decorations. I am not sure whether these were battle worthy. Are these the Army ones ?

I had no idea someone in India was crazier than me about Sykes :lol:

All these knives are WW2, the Indian knives were made by small manufactures and dont have any makers names but show signs of hand work, but if you are interested you could have a look on a forum called " Military knives and daggers of the world ", it is very informative with various experts from around the world involved.
