Norwegian 1894/M1 Krag Bayonet, Scabbard & Frog. BAYO 275. Bayonets

A converted Norwegian 1894/M1 Krag bayonet made by converting the Krag 1894 bayonet, scabbard and frog. The bayonet was made by converting the Krag 1894 bayonet from the 1950's by welding a muzzle ring to the cross guard. This was done in the 1950's when Norway, like the Dutch and many other countries were being supplied by the U.S.A. The bayonet has a 8 1/2" long single edged blade which has inspection stamps at the ricasso. It has a stepped muzzle ring welded to the cross guard and also has a push button to release the bayonet from the scabbard, as can be seen in one of the photographs. It has smooth wood grips secured with one screw bolt. The scabbard is the correct scabbard for the bayonet and is steel, painted black. It has a catch to secure the bayonet. The green webbing frog is riveted to the top of the scabbard and is stitched to form a belt loop and it also has a wire belt clip in the US style. The bayonet, scabbard and frog are all in very good condition.
