This is a two-edged ( ho ho ! [img]redface.gif[/img] ) answer.

The idea for the knife originated in Shanghai where both men served with the Shanghai Municipal Police Force in the '30s. But the 'official' design was put forward whilst both were serving as instructors at the Commando Basic Training Centre at Achnacarry, Scotland ( but you couldn't really classify Achnacarry as a town...)
