Excellent*American U.S. Model 1917 Bayonet Scabbard and Frog. BAYO 591. Bayonets

This is a very nice 1917 pattern bayonet marked to the blade with 1917 over Remington in a circle on one side and an eagle with flaming grenade over U.S. on the other. These bayonets were originally manufactured by the U.S. in WWI and acquired by the British in WWII for use mainly by the Home Guard. This example has a brown leather scabbard which has been fitted with a 1939 pattern leather frog which is nicely and clearly stamped to the rear with Lees (W) Ltd 1940 and a broad arrow. See Skennerton item B289, pages 236. The metalwork and leather are in very nice condition and these would make a brilliant addition to any collection. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 591.
