What pattern F&S ?

[Reibert-Austria]

Hi, mates !

A collectors mate is looking for informations regarding this F&S dagger, also the meaning of the markings.
IMO one of them is an slurred hallmarked broad arrow ?

Thx. in advance, R.

Is the 2nd mark showing a T ?

This is a 2nd pattern FS knife. The marking is an inspectors mark of the Ministry of Supply. It s a broad arrow over a T but as with nearly every example of this stamp is mis-stamped so incomplete.

Looks like a Second Pattern B-2 with Indian broad-arrow stamp.

it is a /l\ T . From what I have read, the "T" stamp is still one that no one seems to know the meaning of.
