Indian RFI 12" bayonet

[Peter Laidler]

Mine's got a scabbard thanks Big Duke. You're right, it IS 10" long and not 12" but when you're a bloke like me, it's easy to get 10" and 12" confused. But as I think to my self occasionally, when you've got one that's 10" long, what do you need a 12 inch one for! Ho ho....., the old ones are always the best..............

Think its time for a new tape measure Peter, RFI SLR is 10" the RFI SMLE is 12", I couldnt find any pics when I was looking, sods law when your looking for something never any to be seen, and when your not looking they are everywhere.

Tankhunter, would be interested in the info you have regarding a scabbard.

Periginvs has covered the source I got mine from. I.M.A shipping is expensive, BUT, if you combine it all with other items. Then it works out better. A Bayonet without a scabbard can be picked up CONSIDERABLY cheaper. Than one with a scabbard! You dont encounter scabbards for sale on thier own, anywhere near as often as Bayonets on thier own! (Good point to be made when purchsing at the time to get the price down!)
