Dated October 1916. Scabbard fittings, crossguard, bolts and pommel have lost original finish/been over cleaned but still a good bayonet, blade in original condition. Looks to have had work done or been reissued 1926, cant remember which off the top of my head. We have to remember that this was the bayonet on issue throughout the life of the SMLE so well into WWII for British use. Regards, Paul.
