    Is this legitimate?

    WW1 Rare 1907 Early Pattern Hooked Quillon Bayonet Scabbard | eBay

    Or is it a frankenhooky? Looks short, and markings seem a little dodgy. Also description says made jan 16 and they stopped the hooky late 13, correct? I can't even make out the date on this one. Apologies if its against the rules to link live auction.
    Cheers

    The markings look a little badly done but it looks legit to me (I'm no expert though). There's no clearance hole in the pommel which is correct and the date looks like 1'10 to me. Oh and it's the correct length if his measurements are correct. It could be Sanderson rather then Wilkinson.
