You are correct. It's a early 3rd pattern with the England import stamp.
I say early because it has the thicker hand ground blade that was discontinued
later in the war for thinner blades to save cost and speed production. You can
see this from the small V grind on the blade where it meets the cross guard.
I am concerned about the sheath. I think it is a lot newer than the knife.

myself around.
The seller does mention that, i will keep tabs on it, thank you.
