Description
The Fairbairn-Sykes combat dagger is a model with a long, narrow blade, developed by William Ewart Fairbairn and Eric Anthony Sykes during World War II, featuring a double-edged blade. Inspired by contemporary daggers from the streets of Shanghai, it was primarily designed for use by British troops, specifically commando forces. Thanks to its sleek lines and the popular association with OSS, Marine Corps commandos, and other units...
Balp was founded in 1830, in homage to the most beautiful French weapon forges. Its reputation and the highest quality of production spread throughout France and beyond. Later generations aimed to uphold the tradition and know-how.
Therefore, we are pleased and honored to present the BALP brand, which remains a benchmark of quality. Their team’s experience, rooted in four generations of forge tradition, guarantees true expertise in their products. The development of the BALP brand is also part of a changing world, where know-how from different countries has been combined to offer ceremonial equipment that meets the needs of major armies.
The development of all sabers and swords is based on original models. The manufactory aims to stand out by returning to traditions consistent with works from the era. That’s why they want to present sabers and swords worthy of history.
All BALP sabers, swords, and daggers are handcrafted, following traditional knowledge passed down through generations. A quality guarantee, reinforced by the passion of highly skilled forge masters.
The manufactory supplies models to the national navy, ministries of defense, ministries of internal affairs, as well as senior officers of military academies such as the National Officer School of Gendarmerie, Coëtquidan schools (Saint Cyr, EMIA...), but also to schools, ministries, regiments, and military centers in many countries.

| Additional information | Stainless Steel: The main advantage of using stainless steel is, as the name suggests, protection against oxidation. Unlike carbon steel, stainless steel does not require surface treatment to protect against oxidation. All our blades are traditionally forged and hardened. The use of sabers and swords as parade weapons no longer justifies the use of carbon steels, which shorten the life of the blades. 24K Gold Plating: Gold plating is considered the best finish available and provides additional added value. Gold plating is a durable and non-corrosive finish, therefore it protects very well against oxidation. We use electrolytic baths, which allow us to obtain 24-carat gold plating (approximately 99.3 to 99.7% gold). Gold plating is also very resistant to fading over time. |
