Nope

>The 271 on my made in England version is much smaller than my anteek 71. I suppose you could make a new blade for a 271 out of a 3/16 allen wrench, but it wouldn't point straight ahead. The locking screw is about 45 degrees off of straight ahead, which causes the six sided allen wrench to be off by 15 degrees. It would work, but it would be a minor nuisance.
