Royal Marines Commando "Dagger."

The Commando Dagger stands as one of the Royal Marines' most iconic symbols. Renowned as the finest fighting knife ever designed, it gained fame in World War II when issued to British Commandos, Airborne Forces, SAS, and other elite units, notably for the Normandy Landings in June 1944. Today, the Royal Marines Commando Dagger continues to represent British commandos and embodies the courage, resilience, and excellence required in special operations.

This particular dagger has been generously donated by Damian Crow in loving memory of his father, who fought his own battle with a brain tumour, embodying the Commando spirit. In Damian’s words, his father demonstrated:
•    Courage: From the day he received the difficult diagnosis, he faced each day bravely.
•    Determination: Through every challenge, he showed incredible strength and resilience.
•    Unselfishness: Always prioritizing others, even in the face of his own illness.
•    Cheerfulness: Remaining upbeat and positive, even when faced with adversity.

This donation is a heartfelt tribute to his father’s enduring spirit.
