British Army Dated 1942 Military Machete and Scabbard via antiqueswordsonline.com.

A very rare and original British WW2 Commando Special Forces Smatchet Knife

This is a rarely encountered British WW2 commando/special forces smatchet and scabbard.  These very unusual knives were meant to be worn with the Fairbairn Sykes fighting knife.  The knife has white metal hilt alloy mounts and a wooden grip.  The distinctive, leaf-shaped blade comes complete with its original brown leather scabbard.  The knife is marked with a War Department broad arrow and the letter C - presumably for Commando(?).  There is also a stamped broad arrow and letter 4 to the scabbard carrying strap.  No maker's mark - apparently; these knives never have a maker's mark and nobody knows who made them.  This is probably the rarest of all British WW2 military knives.

Condition of the Smatchet

In good overall condition - blued blade with service wear.  Some minor damage to the scabbard.

Specifications of the Smatchet

Blade length is 10.5 inches (17 inches overall).

A rare African Malawi 1897 Pattern Army Officer's Wilkinson Sword

This sword is quite rare and would have been carried by an officer in the Malawi Army.  The country gained independence in 1964 and it is believed that the government placed an order with Wilkinson Sword t supply the officers in their armed forces with ceremonial swords.  This sword probably dates from the 1960's/'70's.  It follows exactly the form of the British Infantry Officer's 1897 Pattern sword except that the state coat of arms of Malawi have been etched onto the sword hilt.  The blade is extenesively decorated with Malawian state motifs.  The sword comes complete with its original field service scabbard.

Condition of the Sword

In exceptional condition - virtually unusued - blade is absolutely mint.

Specifications of the Sword

Blade length is 32.5 inches (38 inches overall).

A good example of a German C.WW2 Army Officer's Sword

This sword would have been carried by an officer in the German Army from the 1930's through to the end of WW2.  It is of good quality so I would guess that it is either early or pre-War.  It has an elaborately decorated hilt and a celluloid grip bound with silver twistwire.  The blade is plain and nickel plated with an impressed maker's mark of the Eickhorn sword making company of Solingen, Germany.  It is interesting to note that this sword does not have an inset eagle and swastika to the hilt langet as is quite common with these swords.  Not sure why this is so although it might have been a personal decision of the owner.  Comes complete with its original black painted scabbard.

Condition of the Sword

In good overall condition with a little wear to the hilt and some loss of paint to the black scabbard.

Specifications of the Sword

Blade length is 34.5 inches (39 inches overall).
