Nice genuine WWII USM6 leather scabbard, intended for the USM3 knife.
Approved on January 2, 1943, this type features strengthening pieces consisting of two rectangular metal plates fastened by four rivets, thus keeping the leather parts together. Fastening of these two leather pieces is also ensured by rivets and a strong sewn seam, while an eyelet allows for a leg lace. The handle is secured by a strap with snap fastener in working order.
Good overall condition; markings were likely added later.
