AUSTRALIAN WW2 BAKELITE GRIP MACHETE WITH CANVAS SCABBARD DATED 1944
A little seen Australian WW2 machete that has Bakelite grips instead of wood as used on previous versions. It is typically found with a canvas sheath, evidently a leather sheath was issued prior to the adoption of the canvas sheath. The blade has clear issue stampings.
The machete is offered in good condition and is complete with its waxed canvas scabbard.
