Metal Mk. II (substitute) scabbard with parallel sides and oval frog stud. According to Skennerton, these scabbards were most likely made in North America, either the USA or Canada.

This uncommon scabbard has parallel sides and is made of very lightweight steel tubing. According to Skennerton, 25,000 experimental Mk II scabbards were manufactured by the Franco-British Electrical Company, Tempel Park, Hurley. However, these scabbards are encountered far too frequently for only 25,000 to have been made. The number actually produced is believed to be 250,000. !
