Indian made Pattern-1907 Bayonet from the Great War.

Post by TomcatPC »

Hello

Here is my latest British Bayonet. A Pattern-1907 Bayonet made in 1916 at the Rifle Factory Ishapore (R.F.I.) in India. From what I have read online it's seems that Great War Indian Bayonets that are still in their full 17" blade configuration are not that common. I was grateful to come across this one.

Last photo. These are not the best photos I have taken. It appears that the blade is blued, it is not, it is bare steel.

Hi Tom:
Really nice condition bayonet. Full profiles are hard to find.
