*Matching Numbers* Argentine M1909 Bayonet and Scabbard for the Mauser Rifle. 22426:10. - 22426:10 In 1875 Argentina adopted the robust and popular Remington rifle, and it is believed that a brass hilted sabre bayonet similar in appearance to the French M1842 sabre bayonet was issued with this rifle. A specimen of a brass hilted bayonet of this type has been noted with Argentine crest and was possibly of German or Belgian manufacture. In 1891 a German made Mauser rifle was adopted together with a sword bayonet, probably manufactured to Argentine design by Weyesburg and Kirschbaum of Solingen. A similar bayonet to the M1891 was used on the Mauser rifle. This later bayonet has however, two wooden grip plates secured by two rivets. In the M1909 bayonet the press stud for the internal coiled spring is on the right side of the pommel. The dimensions are exactly the same as the M1891 series. This superb example is in excellent order. The polished blade is true and clean. The ‘Modelo Argentino’ inscription is clear (usually lost by filing). The obverse states the manufacturer ‘Weyesburg and Kirschbaum of Solingen’. One side is stamped ‘G 1631’ which is replicated on the scabbard. The scabbard is all steel with its original drab olive paint. See pages 1 & 2 of White & Watts for reference. The price for this excellent pair includes UK delivery. 22426:10.

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) £325.00 |

*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) £425.00 |

*Rare* Japanese ‘Thai Contract’ Arisaka Short Model Bayonet. BAYO 615. - BAYO 615 This is a rare Japanese short ‘Arisaka’ bayonet with hooked quillon with no visible makers mark. In late December 1941 Thailand signed an agreement with the Japanese and then on 25 January 1942 declared war on Britain and the United States. It was a decision which split the government with the Thai foreign minister Direk Chaiyanam and the liberal leader Pridi Phanomyong advocating resistance against the Japanese. The Arisaka rifle is a family of Japanese military bolt-action service rifles, which were produced and used since approximately 1897, when it replaced the Murata rifle family, until the end of World War II in 1945. The most common models include the Type 38 chambered for the 6.5×50mmSR Type 38 cartridge, and the Type 99 chambered for the 7.7×58mm Type 99 cartridge, which is comparable in power to a modern .308 Winchester round. The blade measures 297mm (398mm overall) with fullers both sides. The grips are wooden held by two screw bolts and oval washers (similar to the A, B, C & D versions) and the pommel carries Thai lettering.

Australian M1907 Parade Bayonet and Scabbard with Regimental Numbers. 22256. - 22256 This is an Australian 1907 Pattern bayonet with 'SLAZ' marked grips and regimental markings. In around 1927 bayonet production ceased and was re commenced late in 1940. The bayonet shop was transferred from Lithgow to Orange in July 1942. The wood room, which made up rifle furniture as well as bayonet grips, was removed from Lithgow to the Slazenger Sports Goods factory in Sydney in 1941, and the mark "Slaz" on the grips indicates manufacture there. After Japans entry into the war in the Pacific, Australian bayonet development moved rapidly into newer, shorter and specialised patterns and so the long 1907 bayonets manufactured in WWII were short lived and consequently rare. The bayonet has a polished 17" blade with fullers. The ricasso is stamped with inspection marks and ‘OA’ (Orange Arsenal) and on the other side with "1907 2 43" (February 1943). The blade is in excellent condition. The bayonet has a straight waisted crossguard. The slab wood grips are both stamped "Slaz" and are secured with two screw bolts. The pommel is regimentally marked ‘D 17749’ to one side and has the push button release, which operates smoothly and clearance hole. The No 1 late scabbard has a large frog stud along with three rivets showing on the locket. It is leather and stitching are in good condition and is stamped "Mangrovite 43 (1943). (See page 5 No 6 of Watts & White for reference) The price includes UK delivery. 22256. (Other countries Box 3) £195.00 |
