U.S M4 Bayonet and Scabbard for the M1 Carbine. 19171 - 19171
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.[1] The blade was made of carbon steel, and was either blued or parkerised. Production of the grooved leather 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 cross guard had a bayonet muzzle ring and the bayonet fastener is on the pommel. Later models used a black moulded plastic handle. The basic design would be used for the later M5, M6 and M7 bayonets. This example has unmarked plastic chequered grips, with ‘U.S M4’ imprinted on the cross guard. The blade looks to have been sharpened, but is free of any nicks or marks. The scabbard is the correct issue in drab olive, the plastic and webbing are mark free. An excellent addition to anyone’s collection. The price includes U.K. delivery. 19171.

*U.S. Model ‘1917’ Bayonet and Scabbard. BAYO 736. - BAYO 736
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’ ina 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 and eagles head over ‘U,S’. The grips are wooden *with 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 showing signs of use is the standard American ‘P17’ version with belt hooks attached. These bayonets were often issued to the Homeguard in ‘WWII’. See ‘Skennerton’ item B289 page 236. A scarce piece, for the collector. The price includes U.K. delivery. BAYO 736.

U.S. M1 Garand Bayonet and Scabbard - BAYO 282
This is a nice M1 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). The scabbard is a standard M3green plastic with a metal throat stamped with U.S. within a flaming grenade. The tip has light wear damage caused by service use. See An Illustrated History of Bayonets by Martin J. Brayley, pages 230 and 242. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 282
