I'm no expert at all but that scabbard does resemble a French Lebel M1886, maybe shortened, though they only have one loop at the top. If you get no joy you could try contacting the site owners at https://worldbayonets.com/index.htm They also have a Facebook page you could message them on https://www.facebook.com/worldbayonets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qed4 Posted September 11, 2023 Share #4 Posted September 11, 2023 What makes you think they are scabbards? They look more pins to hold something together or to tie off something in the loop on the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution BEAR Posted September 28, 2023 Solution Share #6 Posted September 28, 2023 These appear to be tubular ice pitons used for glacier climbing. We used these in Alaska during glacier training. BEAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
