    after reading all the related matter on the internet i know now my knife with the scabbard is MK1. 1915

    probably PAL conversation.they convert only mk1

    but the marking on the scabbard i did not see any marking like that on any ross scabbards . only on British contract bayonets mk1 .

    really like to get same more feedback

    I have one in a scabbard, but have never really 'studied'
    these, as they are simply converted bayonets - On one
    website I read, they are refered to as 'hunting knives'.

    I would be interested to see photos of them in use by
    any Allied army - only to satisfy my curiosity as to
    whether they were intended for issue, or civilian
    sales only - note the 'Sold Out Of Service'
    opposing arrow stamps on
    the pommels.........
