Yes, I think you're right. We had an identical scabbard and frog on a dated 1903 2nd. pattern. This should bring it back-up to the top and others can comment - seems to be a bit more interest in bayonets at present.

is it not a ross scabbard mervyn,

joe.

one of the most sought after bayonets a hooked 07.joe.

Joe - look on the edge or, spine. Usually it has the Imperial Crown and the two numerals for date of manufacture ?

no date on the spine mate.
