April '45 is not July '44. Finding an item in the field one year after its standardization is hardly shocking. You don't suppose those trench knife leather grips held up too well in tropical conditions, do you? Read CCNL 368 and you will see records of thousands of M4 Bayonets on Okinawa. And the presence of a bayonet does not mean a bayonet lug is nearby.

I have a USMC Kabar
from WW2 that was used hard and still has a perfect leather grip. The Marine's name was Fuoco.
