*WWI British ‘P13’ Sword, Bayonet and Scabbard. BAYO 692 - BAYO 692
This is a great example of the ‘P13’ bayonet, which although designated ‘P13’, fit the ‘P14’ rifle and was not introduced until ‘1916’. It is marked to the blade with ‘1913’ over ‘ 17’ (June 1917) and ‘Remington’ in a circle. The other side of the blade carries British inspection stamps. The blade is in good condition and only showing minor signs of wear. 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 groove on either side to distinguish it from the ‘P1907’. The scabbard is also an American made version identified by the ‘R.E.’ for ‘Remington’ stamped to the locket and the chape. A very nice collectable ‘1913’ bayonet with matching scabbard in very good used condition. See ‘Skennerton’ item B239, pages 192-194. The price includes U.K. delivery. BAYO 692.

British 1879 Patt Martini Henry Artillery Carbine Sawback Sword Bayonet. BAYO 780. - Bayo 780
The blade of the sword bayonet is straight, and the back is cut as a saw of 41 teeth. The hilt is furnished with a bar guard. The locking arrangement was the reverse of that in other sword bayonets that were in service: thus the spring and bolt are on the left side of the pommel instead of on the right: the locking edge of the bolt is rounded, and it locks on the back edge of the bar on the upper band instead of on the front. The spring and bolt are consequently special to this sword bayonet. See Skennerton pages 154-156 B197. This example is dated 4/84 (April 1884) and has an enlarged muzzle ring (18mm). The leather chequered grips are in good condition. The 65cm blade is unmarked and has aged well. VR over crown (Victoria Regina) is imprinted on the blade, as is the manufacture date and various clear inspection stamps ‘war department acceptance’ ‘government acceptance’ etc. Price includes UK delivery. BAYO 780.

British 1856/58 Sword Bayonet And Scabbard. BAYO 764. - BAYO 764
This is a good example of the 1856/58 sword bayonet maker ‘Kirschbaum Solingen’. From 1858 the use of more machinery enabled closer tolerances to make bayonets and in doing so made the bayonets interchangeable instead of bayonets being individually fitted to a particular rifle. This bayonet has a slightly longer leaf spring for the locking bolt and was secured by a screw and not as previously with a rivet on the P 1856 bayonet. The bayonet is 25.25 inches long with a blade length of 20 inches. The blade has signs of age related wear. This bayonet has a ‘Kirschbaum’ inspection stamp on the blade. The grips are made of chequered black leather held by steel pins. The scabbard is made of black leather with steel top mount and chape. (See page 114-115 Skennerton) The price includes UK delivery.
