Isn’t it the 1906 peaked forage cap badge? The officers badge often had blades but the battalion headquarters staff sergeants (RSM, Bandmaster, RQMS, Musketry Sergeant, etc.**) also had a similar badge, but with loops and cotter pin. The same badge was worn with the officers
1902 drab khaki SD cap initially (as per images).
** they had previously worn the pillbox cap.
