Enfield number 7 bayonets

Just the production cost and general unserviceability/unreliability/maintenance costs of the No7 that saw its demise

Got to be one of the longest serving Bayonets in the British Army Pete. STILL being caried a 'Dress' side arm with the Brigade of Guards Musicians. Although not an active combat role, it's 'still earning it's keep' so to speak!
I would imagine it's maintainance costs these days to be very modest in this cerimonial role! Ha,Ha!
