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 He has withdrawn the $800 pre-tax allowance on imports and has also cancelled the exemption for antiques.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 WW1 Bayonet. British WW2 Reissue. #2505010
This American WW1 1917 Pattern bayonet was used with the Enfield .30 calibre rifle. The bayonet was made by Remington.
The 431mm blade has a deep single fuller on both sides and a rounded spine. The blade is in excellent condition and retains its original factory edge and blueing to the ricasso.
The ricasso is stamped with the 1917 pattern designation above the Remington maker’s mark. The obverse ricasso bears the “flaming grenade” over “US” ordnance stamp and the eagle head, numbered inspection stamp. The ricasso also bears a partially struck bend test X stamp.
The cross guard and pommel retain their original blueing and the wooden grip scales are in good condition with age and use-related chips and marks. The press-stud locking mechanism works perfectly.
The bayonet is complete with its original Mk II green leather scabbard, which is in great condition. The leather is firm and undamaged. The stitching is intact and strong. The scabbard is complete with a 1939 pattern brown leather frog with Broad Arrow stamp, indicating the bayonet was reissued, probably for Home Guard service during WW2. The bayonet sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard.
This Remington P1917 bayonet is a great example of the pattern.
