With the arrival of a Dutch carbine artillery bayonet yesterday, I hit the milestone of having a bayonet for every rifle I own. All but one are correct and confirmed. The last is on a Chinese Hanyang and I simply cannot confirm or deny if it is correct. It is not a Hanyang but they used bayonets from a lot of sources and this one is unmarked.
On the plus side, I already have the bayonets for the few rifles I'm actively seeking.
Good on ya. I try, but I keep buying more guns with "bayonet" money.
I hadn't bought a bayonet in a long while but picked up four in the past week, 1881 Swiss saw back, Dutch Beaumont socket, 1873 Springfield and the Dutch Mannlicher carbine. Add to those the Italian TS I got a month or so ago and I'm in pretty decent shape for future rifles. Still would like to get a Martini Henry and a German 1871 bayonets but haven't actively sought either as chances of getting either rifle are slim.
