I have what I believe to be an M1905E1 "second issue" bayonet. It has a 9-3/4" blade with one fuller on each side that terminates 3" from the end of the spear-point blade. It is marked on one side of the ricasso only as follows: AFH, Flaming Bomb and US (NO DATE). Nothing on the other side of the blade, nor anywhere else on the bayonet. Metal is about 90% in the white, with traces of what appears to be dark parkerizing remaining on the blade. Grips are black Bakelite. There is no scabbard, therefore my question: There are several different scabbards listed on the internet with varied markings. We will also be having a Gunshow here in Charleston on 26/27 November. What markings & materials am I looking for to try to match the bayonet with the appropriate scabbard?
Any advice appreciated! Thanks, Butch
