    I have both Britishicon and Italianicon frogs this way, the British are official and not for storage it was to make a shorter frog for the No4 bayonet. My Italian's are 1891 Carcano frogs folded to make a short frog for the M38 folding bayonets. The UK ones don't fit on the belt but on the 38 webbing, I believe.

    They are correct frogs for the No4, I believe the folded frog fits on strap on the webbing other than the belt. I have the same for the Italian M38 folding knife made by folding the 1891 Carcano

    I still don't think it will fit anything...and they go on the belt, not some strap. Do you have any publications with this shown? Doesn't make any sense...and Peter would have experienced it firsthand I would think.
