French Nail Knife WWI Repro
This is an extraordinary replica of a “French Nail” (Clous Français) steel knuckle bow combat knife from WWI. This was a crude stabbing weapon, but effective. They were produced at a number of French front-line 'parcs d’artillerie’ utilizing steel salvaged from the reinforced concrete of German field fortifications. They were also possibly made from the metal posts the Germans used to hold barbed wire. The handle was made by bending the post to form a knuckle guard. The blade is double-edged, flattened to form a robust piercing point with a prominent medial rib.
