OSS Stiletto Found in Chindit Sheath

I recently bought this WWII era Office of Strategic Services (OSS) stiletto and it was in, what has been reported to me, a British Chindit sheath.  Although I have read a lot of WWII history, I must confess that I had never heard the term Chindit.  When I read up on the subject, I learned that they were a British commando unit operating in Burma.  I will never know how a very rare OSS stiletto manufactured in the US, ends up in a very rare British sheath, but I thought you guys might want to see a couple of photos.  Any comments to educate me about the sheath and the Chindits, would be appreciated.
