I have a bayonet that I can't ID. I bought it at a flea market and it was tagged as a Spanish Mauser but I knew that was not right. It is all metal, even the handle and has two barrel rings. The only identification are a series of numbers stamped into the handle. The blade is about 11 inches and the cutting edge is on the bottom. Any info would be appreciated.

Also could anyone recommend and good book or two on bayonets. I have several that I have obtained over the years and thought I might start collecting.

I'm new to this site and looking for info.

Thanks
Tom
