Wilkinson Sword CSK185 Dartmoor Survival Knife – A Rare Collector’s Blade
Wilkinson Sword’s Last Survival Knife – A Piece of History
The Wilkinson Sword CSK185 Dartmoor survival knife is already a legend in the world of high-end blades. Designed as Wilkinson Sword’s final knife before they ceased production, this model blends rugged utility with a collector’s appeal. Built for survival, yet refined in its craftsmanship, it features a 7.5-inch 440C stainless steel blade with a drop point, flat edge bevel, and sawtooth back for maximum versatility.
Durable Design, Tactical Features
This isn’t just another survival knife—it’s built to endure. The high-impact nylon 6 polyamide handle is over-moulded with thermoplastic rubber for a secure grip in any conditions. A removable handle conceals a survival capsule, containing essentials like a button compass, metal match, and fishing kit. Secured with a shock cord retaining strap, the glass-reinforced nylon scabbard offers multiple carry options for adaptability in the field.
Condition & Collectibility
Purchased directly from Wilkinson in 2003, this serially numbered (#186/500) knife remains in original condition. Never used or home-sharpened, it bears minor scratches from sheath insertion, a purely cosmetic issue. Supplied in its original box, it includes the factory survival kit and handbook with technical details. A true collector’s piece that’s both rare and historically significant.
