Description

This is a commemorative WWII aviation-themed fixed blade knife produced by an unspecified maker and marked Made in China. The single stainless steel blade features a broad trailing-point profile and is decorated with a full-colour graphic wrap depicting Supermarine Spitfire aircraft in a combat scene. The contoured handle is constructed from white synthetic faux ivory, featuring a printed graphic of a Spitfire with the squadron code GW-Z. The handle is finished with ornate, gold-toned cast metal bolsters and a pommel displaying a deep-relief scroll pattern. No traditional metal-stamped tang stamp is present, with the origin printed on the blade face near the bolster. The piece includes a dual-strand black beaded lanyard attached to the bolster, featuring two gold-tone Spitfire aircraft charms and two enamelled RAF-style roundels. Blade length 12 inches.
