Hi guys I found this dagger for sale and in the description it describes it as a Vietnam US dagger. Now too me it just looks like a fairbain sykes fake but would their be a possibility that it is US or vietnam vintage?

Cheers Steve

There is a photo and description of one of these in 'Allied Military Fighting Knives', on page 49. It is identical, and has the same scabbard. The author seems to regard it as genuine!

Whenever it was made still an interesting dagger. Whats the OA length and length of blade? The sheath looks like it might be an early M8 with the shorter webbing, but I can't tell from the images.

Hi guys thanks for the input I appreciate it. snyper999 for some reason your link is not working for me maybe because I am on an iPad? Sac troop unfortunately there is no info on the length of the blade. So if it is genuine how much would you pay for it?

Cheers Steve
