Another wood handle carbine bayonet

[A. F Medic]

Found another one at an auction and it needs some TLC. Can't make out the maker. It looks like a W.5 or a W.S. Other side of blade is the "bend mark"

Came with a black metal sheath which I know is not correct. Does fit it though.

Any ideas?

Errrrrrrr. Any other clues? A description would help as my crystal ball isn't working at the moment

[browningautorifle]

Does he mean a "Jungle Carbine" bayonet? Wilkinson Sword marked? Perhaps in a Canadian steel scabbard... Or...

[Peter Laidler]

Wish I could help BAR but my crystal ball is still not firing on all four cylinders..........

It looks like the one I have made for the USMC by Ontario Knife. They resemble the K-Bar and are for the AR15/M16...looks a bit rough though.

Thanks!
What is the little hole for? My AR15 bayo does not have the hole. Blade is different then a AR15/M16 bayonet. Longer too. Does fit on my SP1

Would it have been issued with a black metal scabbard with a button attachment point? Any more information you can give me would be appreciated.....

interestign made up piece, blade is from the UK/commonwealth family from the No9 to the SLR, although the length looks like it may be the Indian long SLR model, crossguard appears to be a No5 which has the extra hole, and the kilt is from a bayonet to fit on the M16 and similar weapons with a new set of grips. Nicely done with the peening etc. but who made it and what for?? Doubt its indian, more likley Chinese fantasy

Is that a weld at the crossguard/blade junction.??

[A. F Medic]

A weld at the blade junction? Not that I can see. Just WS on one side and the "bend' mark on the other. Stack wood grips. If old-smithy says it could be a fantasy piece, I can't argue. Blade is 8 inches long with a very deep blood groove on both sides. It is rough but I believe that was because it was placed on a metal sheath. Did No5s have metal sheaths? Thanks!!

Blade is 8 inches long
