Interesting variant of the standard British Pattern 1888 bayonet. This specimen is made in Afghanistan with their simple but distinctive marking on the ricasso, evidence of a more "handmade" bayonet, such as the slightly irregular placement of the handle rivets and more machine/file markings on the crossguard, no oil hole. Blade is GOOD condition with some staining not uncommon for this bayonet. With home guard style scabbard and leather belt frog.

Nicely marked. Blade is GOOD condition with some staining not uncommon for this bayonet. Comes with steel mounted military scabbard.

Wilkinson manufactured bayonet dated October 1890 (10 90). Matching numbers on bayonet and scabbard. Canadian Oliver 1916 Pattern leather frog dated 1923 with “C broad arrow” and maker marked J.E. Lortie a Montreal leather and webbing company still in business today as JELCO. Blade is very good plus and has never been sharpened.

No markings on this bayonet except for an “L” at the pommel. No oil hole in grip or pommel. There is some pitting on the exposed metal parts as shown in the photos. Blade is VG. Scabbard is light brown home guard type with integral chape built into the leather tip. Since these scabbards were made to be used with a slip-on belt frog there is no frog stud on the locket.

Long bladed 2nd pattern Sappers & Miners socket bayonet without the handguard around the socket like the earlier pattern. Not marked ENFIELD on back of blade as is common with the British made versions, this is probably made in India for use by East India Company. Blade length 22 1/4 inch. Original condition.

Reproduction Brown Bess bayonet and scabbard made for Parks Canada during the 1967 Centennial year for use at National Historic Sites such as Fort George, Fort York, etc. etc. Heavy blade and generally well made reproduction bayonet but the socket will not fit on an original Brown Bess musket. Priced accordingly. You can stretch this to fit yourself or purchase as an example.

Very nice original bayonet for the Canadian C1 or C1A1 rilfe. 1959 dated. Blade very good. Scabbard is very good original used condition, with nylon frog.

Like new nylon frog.

Interesting item.

First model bayonet made by Gebr. Weyersberg, Solingen. This is an export bayonet and has GERMANY lightly engraved in the opposite ricasso using electric pencil. Blade is clean without dings or corrosion. Grips are in very good condition. Steel mounted leather scabbard is in good condition with stitching coming apart. This bayonet was made for the Remington Danish Rolling Block rifle. The first model bayonet has a flat spring actuated locking lug.

Dutch 1895, blade length is 13 7/8 inches. Inspector’s mark, Crown over L is for Wiersma, active throughout WWI. No scabbard.

Dutch Model 1895 bayonet shortened to a blade length of 250mm (9 7/8 inch). Scabbard shortened also. This may be a Seitengewehr 102 rifle bayonet shorted by order after Germany occupied The Netherlands in 1940. Specifications called for the blade and scabbard to be shortened to 280mm and called the M1895 rifle bayonet for the Mannlicher rifle. The Germans called it the Seitengewehr 102 (h). Although the blade length is not exactly 280mm it is carefully repointed and the scabbard shortened and modified to refit the bayonet.

Quality workmanship, black plastic grips with grey web hanger and strap seen with East German equipment.
