When a model is a sales success, like the JORFRA COMANDO knives, it is impossible for other companies not to start copying it. This is the origin of the F.E.C.I. COMANDO knives.We do not have too much information about this company, except that today it is mainly dedicated to the manufacture of regulation swords.Formerly called A.M.I.C.C.C.R.A., then A.R.C.I.M.A., today it is F.E.C.I. S.A., due to economic problems, it went bankrupt twice, so it changed its name twice.As the JORFRA COMANDO knives, this knife has an Army Couteaux or M1910 Army Sword type hilt. Highly polished carbon steel bowie blade, with plain main edge and without sawback as JorFra knives, sharpened, there are some dark rust stains on the blade, rat-tail tang.
