Title Bayonet for Mauser rifle, 1896 model
Nationality Swedish
Period c 1910
Sold

A technically interesting bayonet as it is one of the first all-steel sword bayonets ever produced. The shortness of the blade was on account of the length of the barrel. Later the Swedes produced a carbine version of this weapon with a much shorter barrel and a longer bladed bayonet to match.

There are regimental markings to the cross guard.

Just to let you know that the bayonets arrived safely this morning and I am extremely happy! They are everything that I had hoped they would be, but better! I am extremely pleased that i purchased them from you. The 1867 Albini ... is an absolute beauty, the blade is immaculate. The other is in fact in far better condition that I had imagined as well. So all in all, I couldn't be happier! Many thanks Chris.

I very much look forward to doing business with you again in the near future.
