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 He has withdrawn the $800 pre-tax allowance on imports and has also cancelled the exemption for antiques.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.
This Indian No.1 Mk II pattern bayonet was made at the Rifle Factory in Ishapore in 1943. The only difference between the Mk II and Mk II* is the upper false edge on the Mk II*.
The 306mm single-edged blade has a rounded spine. The un-fullered blade terminates in an asymmetrical point. The blade is in good condition with its original factory edge.
The ricasso is stamped with the Mk II pattern designation and R. F. I. maker’s mark below the manufacture date, 8 ‘43. The obverse ricasso bears three inspection stamps.
The cross-piece, muzzle ring and bird-beak pommel are in good condition and retain their original blued finish. The locking catch is in crisp working order. The wooden grip scales are in good condition. The scales are held firmly in place with two blued screws.
The bayonet is complete with its leather scabbard with steel locket and chape. The scabbard is in good condition. The leather is strong and the stitching is intact. The steel locket and chape retain their original finish. The bayonet sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard. This is a good example of an Indian WW2 Mk II bayonet.
