Were the blades and scabbards on these beauties ‘last ditch’ also? And what’s a good place to acquire one? Average cost?

Some blades on the "last ditch" NCO's that had the "pineapple" handle continued the serial numbering, but some at the end, did not. The NCO blade quality was roughly the same from beginning to end. The final versions did not have the bohi (grooves) but some did. Late war, they were putting anything together to get it to the field. Some versions of the pineapple had black painted wood saya. I have included a picture of the various types, for your reference. Attachments:![NCO Sword Variations.jpg](//storage.forums.net/1694914/thumbnailer/sjjplCxVAZkFmvsttXBO.png)
