*Scarce* Sabre Bayonet for the Model 1859 Sharps Rifle with Scabbard and Leather Frog. 21421. - 21421
Sharps rifles are a series of large-bore, single-shot, falling-block, breech-loading rifles, beginning with a design by Christian Sharps in 1848 and ceasing production in 1881. They were renowned for long-range accuracy. By 1874, the rifle was available in a variety of calibres, and it was one of the few designs to be successfully adapted to metallic cartridge use. There were at least three different bayonets for the Sharps. Two different Sabre bayonets and the standard triangular bayonet. Two of the major manufacturers of the sabre bayonet were; Collins & Co, Hartford Connecticut and Ames MFG.Co Chicopee Massachusetts. This example has a 50 ½ cm blade (62 ¼ cm overall) and a brass ribbed hilt stamped ‘44’. The blade is in good overall condition with areas showing its age. The scabbard is leather and intact. The throat is brass coloured as is the chape *later replaced*. The rare frog is in very good order with brass and stitching intact. The price for this very scarce set includes UK delivery. 21421.

*Scarce Wrongly Dated 1918* U.S. Model ‘1917’ Remington Bayonet and Scabbard. 21432. - 21432
This is a nice clean ‘P1917’ dated ‘1918’ by Remington in error. Remington mistakenly used the manufacture date 1918 in place of the pattern designation. The bayonet should be stamped ‘1917’ .This error was soon rectified and 1918 stamped ‘P17’ bayonets are scarce. The bayonet made in ‘WWII’ for the ‘P17 30-06’ rifle. It can be differentiated from the ‘P13’ which it resembles by the markings on the blade. This example is marked to the blade with ‘1918’ over Remington in a circle, meaning manufacture by ‘Remington’ (founded in 1816 by Eliphalet Remington (as E. Remington and Sons) in Ilion, New York, it was one of the oldest gun makers in the US and claimed to be the oldest factory in the US that still made its original product) who made over 2 million bayonets. The other side of the blade carries the flaming grenade and eagles head over ‘U, S’. and inspection marks. The grips are wooden *with minor age related marks* with two grooves cut across them which is where it resembles the ‘P13’ and was interchangeable with the ‘P13’ except for the ‘P17’ rifle being 30.06 instead of the British .303. The scabbard which is solid with stitching intact is the standard American ‘P17’ version with belt hooks attached and U.S. government inspector mark "EJB" to the rear. These bayonets were often issued to the Home guard in WWII. See ‘Skennerton’ item B289 page 236. A scarce piece, for the collector. The price includes U.K. delivery. 21432. (US Bayonets)

**Saipan Found** WWII U.S.M.C. M1942 Pattern M1 Garand Bayonet & Scabbard. 21407. - 21407
This bayonet and scabbard were found on the island of Saipan (Saipan was under Spanish sovereignty from 1565 to 1899 and came under German rule from 1899 to 1914. It was made a Japanese mandate in 1920. During World War II the successful U.S. led Allied invasion and capture of the island (June–July 1944) was one of the fiercest land battles in the Pacific theatre) where it was being used by a local farmer to chop wood for kindling. Despite initial setbacks, the M1905 bayonet was manufactured in sufficient numbers to keep up with the widespread introduction of the new M1 Garand rifle in 1942. By the end of 1942, all six manufacturers had changed the shape of their fullers to a narrower, round-bottomed shape. The later version of the M1905 bayonet with plastic grips is sometimes referred to as the "M1942" by collectors and historians. This is a WII M1942 Bayonet (see White & Watts ‘The Bayonet Book’ item 927 pages 412). The 16” long steel blade with fullers is stamped 1942 *obscured*. The correct plastic grips are correctly held by a single screw- minor movement in the crossguard. The plastic has knocks, bumps and bruises to be expected. The bayonet has the correct press button at the cross guard which releases the locking catch on the rifle and also holds the bayonet firmly in the scabbard. The scabbard is the M3 plastic variant with ignited grenade ‘US’ (army) mark on the throat mount. The throat has the correct double hook belt bar. The price includes U.K. delivery. 21407.

**RARE**MINT**VIETNAM WAR ERA**U.S Army M6 Bayonet By Imperial And M8A1 Scabbard With Integral Frog By PWH (Pennsylvania Working Home For The Blind). Sn 20204 - 20204
This is a scarce M6 bayonet for the M14 rifle. The M14 rifle was issued to conform to NATO requirements for a 7.62mm round as standard. It utilised the Garand action but with a 20 round magazine and half stock. The M14 differed from the Garand in that it had a flash eliminator therefore the M5A1 bayonet would not fit. The M6 deleted the stud fitting on the cross guard of the M5A1 and returned to a standard muzzle ring. It was adopted in 1957 and was in production until 1963, before the issue of the M16 rifle and M7 bayonet. This is a near mint M6 bayonet made by Imperial (Providence Rhode Island USA) and is stamped with ‘US M6’ & ‘Imperial’ on the cross guard (illustrated). It has a 6 ¾” single edged blade and measures 11 ½” overall. This is one of the hardest bayonets to find in the 'M' series as it was only in production for 6 years. The scabbard is stamped 'US M8A1' and by the manufacturer PWH (Pennsylvania Working Home For The Blind). It has the correct integral webbing frog with retaining strap, stud fastener & wire belt hanger. The price includes UK delivery. Sn 20204

*U.S. Winchester Model ‘1917’ Bayonet and Scabbard. BAYO 352. - BAYO 352
This is a nice clean ‘P1917’ bayonet made in ‘WWII’ for the ‘P17 30-06’ rifle. It can be differentiated from the ‘P13’ which it resembles by the markings on the blade. This example is marked to the blade with ‘1917’ over a ‘W’ in a circle, meaning manufacture by ‘Winchester’ and consequently a scarcer model, as ‘Winchester’ only made 500,000, compared to ‘Remington’ who made over 2 million. The other side of the blade carries the flaming grenade over ‘U,S’ and bending mark. The grips are wooden with two grooves cut across them which is where it resembles the ‘P13’ and was interchangeable with the ‘P13’ except for the ‘P17’ rifle being 30.06 instead of the British .303. The scabbard is good with leather, metalwork and stitching in good order *see images* is the standard American ‘P17’ version. These bayonets were often issued to the Home guard in ‘WWII’. See ‘Skennerton’ item B289 page 236. A scarce piece, for the collector. The price includes U.K. delivery. BAYO 352. (US Bayonets Box 1))

WW2 Era U.S. Army Utica M4 Knife Bayonet & U.S.M8A1 Scabbard. Sn 20222 - 20222
The M4 bayonet, like the M3 fighting knife that preceded it, was designed for rapid production using a minimum of strategic metals and machine processes; it used a relatively narrow 6.75-inch bayonet-style spear-point blade with a sharpened 3.5-inch secondary edge. The blade was made of carbon steel, and was either blued or parkerised. Production of the grooved wooden handle was later simplified by forming the grip of stacked leather washers that were shaped by turning on a lathe, then polished and lacquered. The steel crossguard has a bayonet muzzle ring and the bayonet fastener is on the pommel. Later models used a black moulded plastic handle. This is an original M4 bayonet for the M1 Carbine, complete with scabbard and webbing frog. The bayonet has a blackened steel blade which measures 6 ¾ " long. The blade crossguard which has a muzzle ring is marked ‘U.S.M4 UTICA (Utica Cutlery Co) and smoking grenade’ and is in very good condition. The steel pommel incorporates a bayonet release mechanism which operates smoothly. The scabbard is a plastic patterned U.S.M8A1 scabbard has an integral green webbing frog made by R.W.H. This is a very nice complete and original bayonet, scabbard and frog. (See White & Watts Pages 220 & 227). The price includes UK delivery. Sn 20222

WWII Dated U.S. M1905E1/M1 1943 Bayonet and Scabbard for the Garand Rifle. 20821:6. - 20821:6.
This is a nice M1905E1/M1 1943 bayonet that has been cut down from a M1905/M1942 bayonet. This occurred from August 1942 when it was discovered that the M1925 and M1942 bayonets were too long, especially for jungle fighting. The first bayonets merely had cut down blades which are readily identifiable by the fullers which run down to the point. Later bayonets had a new blade with standard fullers. This example has a cut down blade marked to the ricasso with A.F.H. (Union Fork and Hoe Company of Geneva, Ohio) U.S. and a Flaming Grenade (Frankford Arsenal) and 1942. The scabbard is a standard M3 green plastic with a metal throat stamped with U.S. within a flaming grenade. See ‘The Bayonet Book by Watts & White pages 412 & 436. The price includes UK delivery. 20821:6. (USA & Knife Bayonets)
