Gentle People,

I am just about to start rebuilding my M38A1, and was wondering if there was a sheath for the axe on it. I know it goes on the right wheel housing, but was there any thing under the holder to protect the blade? I have not seen anything difinitive in pictures or text, so I thought I would ask. Thanks for your time.

the blade (strap) bracket is the only piece that holds the blade other than the footman loops and straps.

Thanks for the quick reply. I thought that was the right answer, but I readily admit that I don't have much of a knowledge base yet. Again, thanks!

I would like to see a good photo of the axe and shovel for a M38A1 and how and where they mount. Thanks.
