The second one is a modern reproduction of the Fairburn Sykes commando fighting knife. A lovely knife to hold. The scabbard tabs and elastic look too new to be anything else.

Here's a good site that has photos of most of the FS style knives available. There are some wide bladed ones shown.

David,

The first knife appears to resemble a WWII US Navy K-Bar knife. This knife can be found with a leather scabbard or a plastic scabbard. The correct markings are those shown in the pictures below.

I am not an expert in these so I hope this helps.

Regards,

Gordon
