Enfield made bayonet that came without a scabbard. I purchased a scabbard "kit" that came with all the bits to assemble it from a vendor who had a bunch of NOS parts for sale. Figuring out how to bend over the staples was a bit challenging but I think it came out pretty good.

Nice job! The factory had a mandrel that went down inside, making it much easier.

I've seen pictures and yep, it most definitely would have made it much easier.
