I can not say for certain but it is probably not the original and its set up is either some form of battlefield replacement, mission specific or personal carry preference. The blade and edge itself are in excellent shape and still sharp with some wear. The overall construction is excellent.
A very rare piece, desirable for WW2. And special forces related militaria.
