British 1856/58 Sword Bayonets were produced for Enfield .577 rifles by English manufacturer's and the German Solingen trade. This is a nice example of the British Sword bayonet, Pattern 1856/58, with Yataghan type blade (see page 114 plate B151 of Skennerton’s book British & Commonwealth Bayonets).

The back of the blade is marked 'R' 'W' and with 'crown BR4' inspection mark. The edge of the blade near to the hilt is stamped 'crown 77'. It has a steel cross guard and muzzle ring. Its leather 2-piece grip is stamped with a chequered pattern. The grips are undamaged. The steel grip strap is stamped with what appears to be 'JPRB' and with inspection mark 'crown BR42'. The steel mounted leather scabbard's stitching and leather are undamaged. Price includes UK delivery. Sn 11213:4
