*Excellent/WWI British ‘P13’ Mk1 Parade Sword Bayonet and Grafton & Knight Scabbard. 22426:7 - 22426:7
This is a fine example of the ‘P13’ bayonet which has been polished for parade, which although the designated ‘P13’, fit the ‘P14’ rifle and was not introduced until ‘1916’. It is marked to the blade with ‘1913’ and ‘Remington’ in a circle. The other side of the blade carries British inspection stamps cancelled by the slashes with U.S. below. The vast majority of these bayonets were made in America by ‘Remington and Winchester’ with only a few made in England by ‘Vickers’. The wooden grips have two grooves on either side to distinguish it from the ‘P1907’. The scabbard is also an American made version M3 green U.S. belt fittings with steel locket and chape, interchangeable with the ‘P’07’. The leather stitching and furniture on the scabbard are all in good condition and has been chromed presumably for parade/dress purposes. The Scabbard has a makers mark GF & GK (Grafton and Knight) to the rear. A very nice collectable ‘1913’ bayonet. See Watts & White item No 826, pages 325-395.

British ‘1907’ Pattern Bayonet MkII Scabbard Leather Frog. 22426:5 - 22426:5
This is a nice ‘1907’ bayonet that has had its quillon removed on re-furnishment. When the British military adopted the Short Magazine Lee-Enfield rifle, its barrel was shortened to 25.2 inches (640 mm), 5” (130 mm) shorter than the preceding Magazine Lee-Enfield. British military strategists were fearful that the British infantry would be at a disadvantage when engaged in a bayonet duel with enemy soldiers who retained a longer reach. Bayonet fighting drills formed a significant part of a contemporary British infantryman’s training. Soldiers were drilled in various stances and parrying techniques against an enemy also armed with rifle and bayonet. The blade is stamped ‘Crown over G.R. 1907 and ‘Wilkinson Pall Mall’ with numerous inspection marks. In ‘1913’ it was decided to remove the quillon and all further bayonets were made without the quillon, and those that came in for refurbishment had it removed, (see Watts & White item No 820 pages 323-393). The other side of the blade has a broad arrow ‘19’ and several inspection stamps. The grips are wood, held on by two screwbolts, and are in good condition with a distinct patina. The pommel is stamped ‘T.7.CH.R’ 484. The scabbard is the ‘No1 MkII’ which is in very good order with a round frog stud. The leather hanger is excellent, the leather is supple and the stitching is good. The price includes UK delivery. 22426:5 (07 Box 1)

*Scarce* French M1886/93/16 Epee Lebel Bayonet Manufactured Without Quillon with Scabbard and Hanger. 22426:4. - 22426:4
The model M1886/93/16 Bayonet was standard issue to French soldiers fighting in the second half of WW1 after 1916 who were issued the Lebel rifle. The M1886 bayonet is an usual design which has a long thin cruciform Blade with a peculiar locking device just behind the muzzle ring and an all metal grip. Originally the bayonets had a nickel-silver handle and a hooked quillion. By 1916, with the need to conserve nickel for the war effort, the handles were made of brass. About the same time they were manufactured without the quillion. In 1893 a bayonet with a new press button was adopted, and this is known as the M1886/93. The design of the Lebel bayonet was again altered in 1916 so that it no longer incorporated a quillon. This is known as the M1886/93/16. The bayonets have a cruciform blade and tapered tubular scabbards. Overall length 63 ½ cm, Blade length 51 ½ cm. The bayonet has number ‘14526’ along with inspection marks around the mechanism. The blade is straight and true with minor age-related staining. The scabbard is equally as good with inspection marks. The leather hanger is supple, and all of the stitching is intact. See pages 85 & 96 No 209 of White & Watts for similar. The price includes UK delivery. 22426:4. (Other Countries Box 2)

British L3A1 Bayonet and Scabbard for the SA80 Rifle. 22416:2 - 22426:2
This is an excellent L3A1 bayonet which was introduced in 1985 to fit the new SA80 service rifle. The L3A1 socket bayonet is based on the FN FAL Type C socket bayonet with a clip-point blade. It has a hollow handle that fits over the SA80/L85 rifle's muzzle and slots that lined up with those on the flash eliminator. The blade is offset to the side of the handle to allow the bullet to pass beside the blade. It can also be used as a multi-purpose knife and wire-cutter when combined with its scabbard. The scabbard also has a sharpening stone. The use of contemporary bayonets by the British army was noted during the Afghanistan war in 2004. It was an innovative design incorporating many new features. The scabbard is made of Phonolite plastic. A nice set of the current British bayonet.
