I can only find one and it looks OK. Don't think it's the one. WW2 BRITISH NO.5 JUNGLE CARBINE BAYONET AND ORIGINAL SCABBARD MADE BY SMT | eBay

I wonder if it's this one, one of the ones that had the blade reduced in width? BRITISH No.5 BAYONET, POOLE 1946, MALASIAN SPECIAL FORCES No.5 SCABBARD, FROG | eBay

I thought that these were sold as letter openers, now they appear to be "special forces" equipment?

Never seen one marked BSA before plus never seen beech grips on one, but it looks legit.

Looks like a crack in one side of the crosspiece. Dated '75? Makes it an SMG bayonet?
