Thanks, i already contacted them regarding that chape? ( is that its official name), they are going to send me one through, if it aint right it will go back. I have seen a few on good old e-bay one or two are available in the US , i have already grown found of these blades tell you what though guys M6 scabbards wow the price of those things, glad i got a mk 3.
Some nice knives. This thread has made me open "that" draw I have my US knives stored in. It's been a while as I forgot what I had....
I now remember that I have an:
- Imperial M3 with M8 scabbard
- Navy Mark 1,
- M4,
- M5a1
- M6
- m1917
- M1918
- M1905
- M1905e1 cut down
- ...as well as a Model 1904 and 1908 Bolo.
The M5a1 has an ww2 M8 scabbard. If I remember correctly I picked up the knife from one pile and the scabbard from another and paid for it (those were the days)
Now I have to pull them all out to take photos!

My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

OK...not artistic and they are not all minty...but here they are. All together and broken out in groups.
Just noticed the M4 has and M8A1 scabbard. Maybe I'll swap it out with the M5a1 that has an M8 scabbard....but that is how it came...so maybe will leave it.
