Hi there everyone 
,
I have the following up for trade
Buck 110 Folder, locking. Absolutely as new condition as can be seen from the pics, unused and unsharpened or altered, trade value ~35 quids
Also a couple of bokks pertaining to the Fairburn Sykes family of fighting knives.
Firstly "The First Commando Knives: The Shanghai Fighting Knives" by Kelly Yeaton, Samual Yeaton and the world famous father of WW II American combat knives, Rex Applegate. Contents included are
-Dedication + Foreword
Chapter 1: Sam and I before Shanghai
Chapter 2: Shanghai in the 30s
Chapter 3: Pre-classic - a Shanghai fighting knife from 1933
Chapter 4: Fighting style
Chapter 5: Sam and I after Shanghai
Chapter 6: The upside-down carry (point out)
Chapter 7: The last word (the Applegate-Fairbairn combat knife)
Chapter 8: E. A. Sykes by Col. Rex Applegate
(Softcover, 5.5"x8", 120+ pages)
This small but densely packed book provides a complete overview of the initial and early history of this elite fighting knife, It is a small booklet compared to the larger volumes put out by major publishers, but a superbly detailed narrative nevertheless.
Secondly, "The Earliest Commando Knives" from Dr William Windrum, Contents are
-Acknowledgements, Contents, Intro
Chapter 1: The Earliest Commando Knives
Chapter 2: The Shanghai Fighting Knife
Chapter 3: The Evolution of the British Commandos Fairburn Sykes Dagger
Chapter 4: Rare Fairburn Sykes Knife Variants
Chapter 5: Further Rare Variants of the Fairburn Sykes
Chapter 6: Fairburn Sykes Knives development by Commonweath countries during ww2
Chapter 7: WW2 F-S Fighting knives with wooden grips
-Bibliography
(Softcover, 80 pages)
Both in excellent condition as can be seen from the pics, value ~50 quid the pair
What I'm after ? I seriously need a new stove, preferably multi fuel, a jetboil would be mega handy, a decent light weight bivvy bag would come in useful too, lightweight cooking pots may be usefull too
Any questions don't hesitate to ask,
Cheers, Sp
