This Swedish Model 1896 bayonet is the Mk II variant with a conical locking stud. This example was made by Eskilstuna Jernmanufactur. EJ-AB produced around 280,000 of these bayonets between 1899 and 1912.
The 212mm single-edged blade has a narrow, flat spine with a thin single fuller on each side and terminates in a spear point. The blade is bright and clean and in very good condition with some minor tarnish at the point.
The ricasso bears the makers anchored logo above the serial number “367”. The obverse has a crowned inspection stamp.
The steel cross-piece has wear to the original blueing and is unit marked. The tubular steel grip is knurled and blued. The conical attachment mechanism is in good working order.
The bayonet is complete with its blued steel scabbard. The scabbard has the expected wear to the blueing and is in excellent condition. The bayonet sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard.
These Swedish bayonets are an excellent buy. They are very well made, all steel construction and iconic – an ideal collectors’ bayonet.
