I still have mine, issued in 1980 and just as good now as it was then.

Made in 1955 - a year before I joined. Unlike my shell dressing which was made in 1944.

I have the same but issued to me in 1972 on arrival at 6 OFP RAOC, Northumberland Barracks, Menden. Blade's a bit worn from wood whittleing on 11 EOD Bn. Licensing Exercises but still very useful.
Must give it a splash of 3-in-1 - thanks for the reminder!
