US M1855 Socket Bayonet. Socket bayonet with fullered triangular blade and steel scabbard. Scabbard with drainage hole and frog hanging hook. Blade 18 inches in length, the bayonet 20¾ inches overall. The blade is stamped at the ricasso with ‘US’. Both bayonet and scabbard have been blued and retain a great deal of this original finish, especially the blade. The scabbard has some wear to the bluing on prominent surfaces and one very small dent towards the point.

Swiss Stgw. 57 Bayonet by Wenger. Double-edged spear-pointed blade, ribbed black plastic grip with concave grooves, steel crossbar hilt with muzzle ring, steel pommel with locking button. Black plastic scabbard with frog loop and leather frog strap, brown leather frog with strap and stud. The hilt is stamped on one side with the mark of Waffenfabrik Bern where the bayonet was assembled, composed of the letters ‘FW’ and a Swiss cross arranged within a circle. It is stamped on the other side with ‘W’ for the maker Wenger and the serial number ‘466664’. The scabbard is stamped at the throat with ‘P’. The Swiss government split the blade production contract for these bayonets 50:50 between the rival firms of Wenger and Victorinox, who had both been producing what they claimed was the bona fide Swiss Army Knife since 1908. The two firms competed until 2005, when a slump in sales due to tighter airport rules on pocket knives allowed Victorinox to acquire Wenger, uniting the brands under one roof. The rear side of the leather frog is stamped with the maker’s mark ‘U. REUSSER RÜFENACHT’. I believe this refers to the firm of Ulrich Reusser, founded in 1947 - this firm still exists today as Reusser Innendekorationen (Interior Decoration) AG, still trading in Rüfenacht, near Bern. Below this is stamped ‘87’, probably an item number. This bayonet fits the Swiss Sturmgewehr 57 (usually abbreviated to Stgw. 57) rifle, which was adopted by the Swiss military in 1957 to replace the M1931 (K31) bolt-action rifle.

East India Company 1845 Pattern F Type Socket Bayonet. Socket bayonet with triangular blade, the broad face of the blade unfullered while the two narrower faces are fullered, the socket with distinctive enlarged socket rim with a crescent shaped hole. Brown leather scabbard with brass throat and chape pieces, the throat piece with teardrop shaped frog stud, the chape piece secured with steel rivets and with a drainage hole at the tip. Blade 17 inches in length, socket 3 inches, muzzle ring diameter 24mm, scabbard 15 7/8 inches in length The broad face of the blade is stamped at the forte with ‘E.B’, while the top of the socket is engraved with numerals including ‘5’ – these marks are faint and there are numerous small dents which may have been applied to cancel the markings. The chape piece of the scabbard is stamped with ‘C^15’ where ^ is a broad arrow War Department mark. I believe this is an Indian mark, I have seen similar markings on Indian 1907 Pattern scabbard fittings. The blade and socket have some areas of light patination, some spots of light pitting and forging imperfections to the blade. The leather of the scabbard has some surface-level cracking, one chunk taken out of the front face next to the throat piece, some warping and abrasion to the seam on the reverse side, with an uneven line of stitching added as a repair. Some dents and spots of patination to the brass fittings. The chape piece is attached to the leather on only one side – take care to support it once the blade has been withdrawn.
