British No5 Bayonet
This is a British No5 bayonet, designed for use with the Jungle Carbine rifle. The bayonet features a full tang construction with a dark stained wooden grip, secured by rivets. The blade is spear-pointed and displays a dark finish, consistent with field use. Markings are visible on the blade, including “204 W.S.C.”, indicating manufacturer and serial number.
Condition and Collectibility
This bayonet shows signs of honest wear and use, with patina and minor surface corrosion to the blade. The wooden grip is intact, though with some wear and minor cracks consistent with age. This bayonet would be of interest to collectors of British military equipment, particularly those specialising in small arms accessories. It represents a piece of history from a significant period of military development.
