As you know, President Trump has decided that all USA citizens must pay import taxes on any items bought from overseas. He has withdrawn the $800 pre-tax allowance on imports and has also cancelled the exemption for antiques.
The amount of import tax payable is dependent on the country of manufacture of the item, NOT where it was bought/imported from.
For example,
The tariff on UK made items is 10% of the total amount, including the shipping fee.
On items manufactured in mainland Europe, the tariff is 15%.
Some countries incur a much higher percentage.
President Trump has insisted that these fees be paid BEFORE the item is imported, or the parcel will be refused entry into the US.
This basically means that Bygone Blades has to collect the US import tax from you and submit it to the carrier, who in turn pay the US customs.
After you have made your purchase, you will receive a separate invoice for the new import tax specific to the item purchased. This will need to be paid before your purchase is shipped.
American 1917 Pattern Bayonet. Winchester. #2412003
This is a scarce, Winchester made American 1917 Pattern bayonet for the Enfield .30 calibre rifle.
The 430mm blade has a deep single fuller on both sides and a rounded spine. The blade is in good condition with small patches of pitting and some small nicks to the cutting edge. The ricasso retains its blueing.
The ricasso is stamped with the 1917 pattern designation above the Winchester maker’s mark. The obverse ricasso bears the “flaming grenade” ordnance stamp and an eagle head inspection stamp along with a bend test X.
The cross guard and pommel retain their original blueing with use-related wear and the wooden grip scales are in great condition. The press-stud locking mechanism works perfectly.
The bayonet is complete with a leather scabbard with round frog stud. The scabbard is in good condition. The locket and chape retain their original finish with minor wear. The leather is firm and undamaged and the stitching is intact and strong. The bayonet sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard.
This is a good example of a scarce, Winchester made model 1917 American WW1 bayonet that was probably reissued for British Home Guard use during WW2.
