Massive Gear-Toothed D-Guard WWII Pacific Theater Bowie - Australian? Who made it?

[Mr. Scratch]

I've got this giant cleaver of a weapon. I assume it is Australian manufacture, with the gear-tooth guard and the old Enfield bayonet grip. Does anyone know the maker? Anyone have any other examples?

Enfield grips??? You sure?

[Mr. Scratch]

Enfield grips??? You sure?

 

Nope. I just assumed they were some sort of obsolete British bayo grip, as they're stamped broad-arrow over WD.

Id say that looks more like the grips from an Indian enfield bayonet rather then a british one, the grips have a sharper edge to them while the british normally curved them so they would fit better in the hand. Very intresting knife.
