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 He has withdrawn the $800 pre-tax allowance on imports and has also cancelled the exemption for antiques.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.
Australian WW2 1907 Pattern Bayonet. Orange 1943. #2410001
Australian Pattern 1907 bayonet made in 1943 at the Orange Small Arms Factory in New South Wales.
The 430mm, single edged blade has a long narrow fuller and rounded spine. The blade retains its factory edge and original black finish and is in excellent condition.
The ricasso is stamped with the pattern designation, 1907 over the numeral 1. Below this is the manufacture date of 11 ’43 (November 1943). The obverse ricasso bears an Australian Defence Department arrow stamp, a bend test mark and the Orange Small Arms factory OA mark.
The crosspiece and muzzle ring retain their original blueing, as does the steel pommel. The push button locking mechanism is in good condition and works well. The pommel is stamped with the issue number 207.
The grip scales are both stamped SLAZ43 and are in good condition with some use related wear and staining. The scales are held firmly in place by the two original screws.
The bayonet is complete with its correct World War Two issued leather scabbard with a round frog stud. The scabbard is in very good condition. The stitching is intact and strong. The steel locket and chape retain their original blueing with minor wear and are stamped with Mangrovite factory marks. The bayonet sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard.
This is a very good example of an Orange made World War two Australian P1907 bayonet.
