This is in very good condition for its age with the spring nice and tight could use a good sharpening by professional but handle no cracks couple scuffs & great patina...please look at all the pics use the zoom they are part of description. M8A1 scabbards were produced by two additional manufacturers other than Beckwith Manufacturing Co. (Victory Plastics) and the Pennsylvania Working Home for the Blind.
Viz Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia, PA appears to have been the successor to the Working Home as prime contractor for M8A1 scabbards. However, Viz appears to have only produced scabbards from May 1969 to November 1969, which accounts for their relative scarcity compared to scabbards produced by Beckwith and the Working Home.
Additional scabbards were produced by an unknown firm represented by the marking \"WD.\" Their marking also appears to have been added to some scabbard throatpieces that had already been marked \"VIZ,\" appearing as \"VIZ/WD,\" with the \"WD\" being off center due to its having been added later. The steel throatpieces and plastic scabbard bodies on \"WD\" scabbards often have mold or inspection markings typically associated with Beckwith\'s Victory Plastics subsidiary, which adds to the mystery surrounding this maker. These scabbards are also uncommon
As always remember that what you see in the photos is what you receive if you are the winning buyer.
