I would have to say the British Fairbairn-Sykes Fighting Knife

Though known as the FS Fighting knife, this was not designed to be a knife fighting knife, but primarily designed to be used in silent killing actions such as sentry take-outs. The techniques of effective use were taught to various special forces at Highland training centres such as Lochailort Special Training Centre (STC) and Achnacarry, which was the Commando Basic Training Centre (CBTC) from 1942-1945

Kukri

Kukri as issued to Nepalese Ghurka units is the hands down ultimate battle weapon. In the hands of a well trained warrior it is an absolutely devastating piece of hardware.
