A rare World War II Special Operations Executive Escape Knife The slab sides enclosing three saw blades, a short double edged tyre blade or drop blade, a single knife blade and a wire cutter, the end with a fixed screwdriver and a double lanyard ring. 15 cm long overall. Note: Issued to the Special Operations Executive, Office of Strategic Services, The Royal Air Force and possibly the Commandos during World War II. The design pre-dates the war, though Victorian versions do not have the three saw blades.
Generally in good condition, expected wear, some pitting, lanyard rings slightly misshapen.
