User blog comment:The Deadliest Warrior/WW1 British Infantryman vs. WW1 French Infantryman/@comment-3239346-20110401025902

The British have the more modern weapons in this fight, I think. Or at least those with larger maagazine capacities and greater rate of fire.

And a knuckle duster is a better close combat weapon than a clumsy trench ax, which is savage and brutal but not as fluid as the brass knuckles/knife combo.

So my vote goes to the WW1 British Infantryman.
