Features
- Authentic WWII Pattern — Faithful reproduction of the Fairbairn-designed Smatchet issued to OSS operatives and British SAS commandos for close-quarters work behind enemy lines.
- 10-7/8" High Carbon Steel Blade — Heavy leaf-shaped blade with a blued matte finish, double-edged geometry, and a partially sharpened top edge for thrust, cut, and chop capability.
- 3/16" Blade Stock — Thick spine gives the Smatchet its signature heft and chopping authority, making it equal parts fighting knife and short machete.
- Full-Tang Construction — One-piece tang runs the entire length of the grip for uncompromising strength under hard use.
- Hardwood Grip Scales — Contoured hardwood handles deliver a secure, period-correct hold that matches the original wartime issue knives.
- Carbon Steel Guard & Cast Aluminum Pommel — Beefy steel cross guard protects the hand, while the cast aluminum pommel adds rearward mass and includes a lanyard hole.
- Leather Belt Sheath Included — Hardwood-lined black leather sheath with an angled belt loop, sized to fit belts up to 3-1/4" wide — exactly like the wartime original.
- 16-5/8" Overall Length — Compact enough to carry on a war belt yet long enough to deliver serious reach and striking power.
- Approx. 1 lb 8 oz Weight — Forward-balanced mass drives every cut and chop with authority.
- Made by Windlass Steelcrafts — Museum-quality reproduction crafted in India by one of the most respected names in historical edged weapons.

Awesome Addition to My CollectionBeen wanting one of these for awhile now. Finally pulled the trigger and glad I did. Thing is a beast you can tell why Fairbairn designed it as a chopping/slashing weapon. Had a buddy who collects originals come over and he was impressed with the overall look and feel of it.
Impressive size and heft
Well made reproductionHeavier than expected, not really a complaint tho
