Matching Numbers* P1907 Bayonet by Wilkinson with Scabbard and Leather Frog. BAYO 482. Bayonet

This is a nice matching numbers 1907 bayonet that has had its quillon removed on re-furbishment. The blade is stamped 1907 and Wilkinson Pall Mall. The production figures for 1911 were only 32,706 at ‘Enfield’, but the bayonet was also made in large quantities by ‘Wilkinsons’ (25,575) and others. In ‘1913’ it was decided to remove the quillon and all further bayonets were made without the quillon and those that came in for refurbishment had it removed, (see Skennerton item B234 & B235 pages 186-195). The other side of the blade is unmarked. The pommel and scabbard throat are both marked number ‘766’. The grips are wooden, held on by two screwbolts, and are in very good order. The No 1 late scabbard has a large frog stud along with three rivets showing on the locket. It is leather and in good condition with a round frog stud. The leather frog has a nice patina and the leather and stitching is all in order. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 482.
