I believe it is a cap screw/nut. Here is my US m1902 sword with a similar arrangement. A difference will be a pin/rivet through those ears on the backstrap.

Thanks. So I am clear, do you think the cap prys off to reveal a nut, or the cap is the nut? If that makes sense. Thanks again.

A nut, sometimes known as a cap screw, or I guess better, a cap nut. My bad.

I believe it is a cap screw/nut.

Hi again. Any clue if the blade should be nickle plated? I just bought it and am skeptical.
