This is a post-WWII era FS dagger that I purchased at an auction of
antique items from England. The guard is stamped "William Rodgers
Sheffield England". Third pattern handle.

I'm asking $90 + $5 shipping in the US.

Jason,
Sorry for the delay but your question led me to do some research on these knives.
While I didn't find any sources that indicate the exact year these knives were made I
did find details leading me to now believe that this is a version produced shortly after
WWII. The differences that I found between this model and a wartime produced knife are:
1) The pommel does not have a small number (1 - 4) cast onto it which the wartime models had.
2)The sheath on wartime models had two brass rivets which changed to steel after the war.
This one has steel rivets.

This one is still early but not wartime issue. Due to these findings I'm changing my asking price
to $95 shipped in the US.
Thanks for your question.
