## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid build, excellent quality. Not made for cutting.
*by L***. on April 24, 2025*

Excellent. Heavy, with a point that feels like one could probably pound it through a sheet of steel. To all of those moaning about the edges…TheF-S isn’t some new “EDC” blade to have lying around. It’s not designed for slashing, or cutting your Philly cheesesteak sandwich. It’s an assassins stabbing weapon, a murder tool, for ambushing the unsuspecting. It’s shaped to stab. Straight up under the chin. Straight down to attack the subclavian. Straight through heavy clothing to the heart from the front, and the kidney or the base of the skull from the rear. Some OSS and SAS folks ground down one side of the handle to prevent it turning when covered with blood. Sharpen the edges if you want. They’re pretty steeply beveled, and it’s really a waste of time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Real Deal...a piece of functional history
*by K***G on June 16, 2022*

The F-S knife is a fascinating piece of WWII history. It evokes the actions of the brave warriors of the SOE, OSS, and other Allied commandos. In later years it served the CIA. While an imperfect design, (the later Applegate Fairbairn perfected the concept) it was and is a highly lethal, specialized tool.The Nowill & Sons version is the real deal. Not a cheap Pakistani junk copy, this is honest, machined steel, crafted to high standards. It is still issued to UK Special Operations forces. It has recently been used in combat in Afghanistan, to predictable effect.Lee is committed to excellent customer service. My order was delayed, first by the British postal service, and subsequently by Federal Express, which unfortunately these days is no longer either Federal nor Express. Lee went to considerable expense and trouble to make things right. He communicated most effectively along the way. A+This knife is an exceptional product and an honest value. You get what you pay for and then some. If you want a genuine F-S fighting knife, this is the one. Accept no lesser incarnation.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Authentic and solid
*by B***N on April 21, 2021*

If you’re a collector, this is the FS you’ve been looking for. Construction is as solid as these get, fit and finish is genuine. Customer service and speed of delivery was stellar, and the shop owner shipped it sharp at my request, doing a better job on the edge than a more expensive version I once bought. The handle is nicely knurled and pleasantly absent the off-kilter casting seams of lesser versions. It is very solid in the hand with a nice balance.Things to know: You guys, this is a genuine issue, munitions-grade Fairbairn-Sykes. It’s an old-school tool of war, designed for regular carry and with a singular purpose. If you’re looking for a high-end safe queen custom blade, this ain’t it. Fit and finish are exactly appropriate for mil-spec. And yes, even though Fairbairn advocates cuts to the hand, arm, leg, and neck, the edge geometry has never allowed for excellence in anything but going straight in. Even “the best” of this design doesn’t slice tomatoes worth a damn.Some folks have complained about the sheaths. Again, it’s genuine, and as good an example of one as you’ll find. Very workable if you understand the features.But if you understand and appreciate these blades for what they are, this is the one to get.
