This full size replica has a metal blade and the handle is made from leather washers (the same as the original war time knives), and has the early type of markings on the blade which is "US M3 1943".
The leather M6 scabbard is also made like the originals so it has the metal plate on the bottom to stop the blade from cutting through the leather, correct diamond shaped rivets, metal teeth on the throat guard to help prevent the knife cutting the leather, strap fastening across the handle, belt loops (this is also where the leg strap goes, leg strap not included) and metal belt hangers.
