Reviews

What you would expect for the price

"Blade is welded to a tang that is threaded. Then the glass breaker pointy nut is tightened onto the handle. The knuckles are obviously not brass but feel solid enough. I would not wanna be punched by them. Overall the blade itself cuts. But i wont trust the tang to have strength when pressure is applied. The blade does not hold an edge long witch was expected. The engraving looks cool! Overall happy because i knew what i was ordering."

Anthony S. (5/5)

Best gift ever for my dad

"I saw this knife in the Sinners movie and I had to get my dad one. I’m so grateful for this website. He loved the knife and the engraving …. It took his breath away. I am looking forward to buying more artifacts for his military room. Thank you"

Steve A. (5/5)

Great build

"The only issue I didn't read it five stars is cuz the sheets that's metal is sold separately and it only came with a tip protector in there other than that it's really good 100% will buy again"

James (4/5)

Okay

"Well, the knife does not come with a sheath. So thats annoying. The hand guard is round so finding a sheath will be fun. The blade is pretty cheap looking metal. I was disappointed. The knuckle handle with the glass breaker is probably the most redeeming part of this knife. Its definitely more of a prop or collector case knife. Nice replica but beyond that it offers little."

Jeff S. (3/5)

Great knife

"This is a good replica but I wish they would use brass like the original world war knife. The knife doesn't come a knife sheath (1 Star) and the knife sheath is close to the original knife sheath but could be better. Overall, it great but needs a sheath include with purchase. Fast shipping and no issues with customer service!"

James M. (5/5)

Light good

"Accurate castings, different material. . pretty good LIGHT quik . good."

Q&A

What alloy is the handle guard made of
The guards are typically cast brass, which are then antiqued to a dark finish.
Can this item could be used as a survival knife I mean is fully functional or is ornamental ? Thank you
This item is fully functional, however it does not come razor sharp. It has a slight edge, so you can sharpen to your liking.
Where can I purchase the sheath for the 1918 trench
You can purchase the sheath with us! It's item number is BK984S, or you can search 1918 Trench Knife Sheath.
Can I get one double engraved? Meaning, 25 characters on one side of the blade and 25 on the other? Also, I’m planning to buy 11 of these for my groomsmen. Do y’all offer a bulk discount or maybe a military discount?
We can engrave this item on both sides however the order has to be placed over the phone. We do not offer any bulk or military discounts at this time.
