Description

Early 1st Pattern, 1909 Dated Hook Quillon '07' Sword Bayonet By Wilkinson To The Queens Own Royal West Kent Regiment (RWK) & Scabbard. Sn 9983 - 9983

During WW1 the RWK saw action at the Battle of Mons Le Cateau Neuve Chapelle; Elements of the RWK also took part in the Gallipoli Campaign and First Battle of Gaza. 1st type 1907 pattern bayonets with hook quillon were introduced in 1908, after 1913, ‘07’ Pattern bayonets were produced without hook quillon (see page 186 of British & Commonwealth Bayonets by Skennerton). This is an original early dated 1st type hook quillon 1907 pattern sword bayonet by Wilkinson, complete with original scabbard. The sword bayonet has a 17" steel single edged blade which is stamped at the ricasso on one side with the King’s Crown ‘ER’ (Edward Rex), ’2 ’09 date (Feb 1909) and ‘1907’ (Pattern) together with ‘Wilkinson’ (manufacturer). The reverse is stamped with inspection marks. The bayonet is fitted with 1st pattern hook quillon cross guard which incorporates a muzzle ring. The grips are secured with two screw bolts. The pommel is stamped ‘RWK’ to the Queens Own Royal West Kent Regiment and ‘B416’. It is complete with original leather scabbard with steel locket & chape. All the stitching and leather of the scabbard are intact. The price for this Regiment marked 1st type hook quillon bayonet and scabbard includes UK delivery. Sn 9983
