British 1888 Mk1 Type 1 Three Rivet Bayonet. #2508004. This is a rare 1888 Mk 1, Type 1 Lee Metford rifle bayonet. Very few of these were made before the Mk1 Type II was introduced. This bayonet is in fair condition for its 137 years of age and is highly collectable. A “must have” bayonet for all British bayonet collectors. The 303mm double-edged blade has a speckled patina and cleaned pitting. The ricasso bears a faint crowned VR cypher and numerous issue and re-issue dates with Birmingham stamps. The obverse ricasso is stamped with a WD, Broad Arrow and bend test X. Also present are a condemned mark and a sold out of service mark. The spine of the ricasso bears two Enfield factory inspectors marks. The wooden grip is in good, worn condition and shows age related wear with the iconic three brass rivets: two smaller and one larger. The wooden hilt scales are drilled with an oil hole on both sides below the two top rivets. The steel pommel and cross piece are in fair condition, with a speckled patina. The pommel bears the issue number 683. The press stud mechanism is in good working order. This is a tired, but fair example of a very rare British bayonet.

Italian M1938 Carcano Folding Bayonet. Description Single fullered knife blade with spear point. Steel hilt with muzzle ring and locking button for press-stud folding action, wood slab grips secured by two screws. Steel scabbard with angled steel belt loop. Blade 7 inches in length, the bayonet 11Â¼ inches overall. The &#acute;tang&#acute; (not actually connected to the blade) is stamped next to the muzzle ring with &#acute;H89155&#acute; as well as &#acute;PS&#acute; within an oval. This bayonet was initially issued with the M1938 Carcano infantry rifle and its &#acute;Moschetto&#acute; carbine version, its folding blade allowing the bayonet to be left affixed to the rifle rather than returned to the scabbard when not in use. However, the folding mechanism was found to be a point of structural weakness and the blade tended to rattle when locked open or locked closed (this bayonet is no exception, there is up-down as well as left-right movement in the locked position). During WW2 the M1938 was redesigned to be a fixed-blade bayonet, and many of the folding version were also converted to a fixed configuration with a new hilt piece. This makes the original unmodified folding types rarer today. The earliest folding M1938s used a latch-lock integrated into the grips to lock the blade, but this was quickly replaced with the less awkward button with an internal spring seen on this example. The folding & locking mechanisms are fully functional.

US 1902 PATTERN ARMY OFFICER’S SWORD. See The American Sword, Peterson #77 and pattern still in current use. This example dating to WWII with 32 5/8” curved broad fullered blade. Exceptional length for these reflecting the stature of the officer, as these were privately purchased. US, eagle, flags, military arms and foliage decoration to 2/3 of the blade. Finger stall composition grip. Hilt, and scabbard (undamaged) with virtually all plating intact. Very minor isolated smooth black staining to the blade. Original blade seat.

US MILITIA NON COMISSIONED OFFICER’S SWORD, CIVIL WAR OR LATER. One of the many variants (see Peterson #11 and #12) which were purchased by state militias before, during and after the Civil War. Brass hilt with cruciform guard and shield form langets. Plumed helmet pommel and reded bone grip. 27 3/8” rounded face straight double-edged blade struck with a walking bear maker's mark at the forte. That mark is well known, but the subject of some confusion. It is recorded on some Civil War swords, but mostly later examples. It may be the mark of the Weyersberg family of sword makers who were active before the Civil War. Brass mounted leather covered steel scabbard, the screw for the bottom mount lacking. As with most undated swords of types used during the Civil War, dating is speculative. However, it would be perfectly at home in a Civil War collection.
