Andy, This type holster has been an inigma to me for some years. They are very well made but I suspect they are post war. They are not made exactly like a pre 1945 holster for sure. I have never seen one of these with a tool pouch.
Like Alinint says..the lanyard looks period authentic. It is not made in the normal way but has rivets and a twisted wire swivel. The round leather cord is also flat spliced & sewn rather than woven. I believe it is earlier than the brass swivel types.
