ExtremaRatio - Herring NE - Fairbairn Sykes Dagger - tactical knife
The Herring dagger is one of the most loved military knives by enthusiasts.
Its original name is Fairbairn Sykes or Commando Dagger and it was present in the endowment of the British Commandos.
A dagger that entered Italian history in World War II, thanks to the exploits of young soldiers of the 1st "Folgore" Reconnaissance Squadron, who were equipped with this weapon during Operation Herring. He has behind him a heroic piece of history that is rarely talked about, despite the fact that these young boys, thanks to their devotion to the cause and their courage, have written an important page in Italian history.
Extrema Ratio wanted to pay homage to this dagger trying to remain faithful to the original forms, while using the most modern production techniques.
The very special hand-made finish of the handle simulates the aging of brass and gives the dagger a dated look, similar to the original.
The dagger was developed in collaboration with the 185th RAO and adopted as a ceremonial commemorative dagger for the 20th anniversary of the regiment's establishment and the 75th anniversary of the Herring mission.
The knife is equipped with a polymer case with historical frieze of the F Squadron, leather / kydex sheath with brass tip and two commemorative scrolls.
