    1905 Bayonet

    I have a 1905 bayonet made in 1910 that came with the outer canvas cover but no inner sleave. I'm told the inner sleave is made of wood and wraped in rawhide. Is there someone on this forum who might have one for sell or know where I might find one ? Thanks for looking.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    You might buy one of the repro 1910 scabbards from What Price Glory and use the inner sheath. They are nothing like an original, although they are described as being made of hard rawhide, but one might work. You may be able to find an original inner sheath which is missing the cover on eBay but it will be a long search.

    Good early scabbards for these are not common nor cheap. I have seen ones without outer leather on EBAY but they usually come with a blade so not cheap. It may be easier to buy another and then sell the old one to help offset the costs
