Type 30 Bayonet

[Jet Fixer]

Been doing some further research and believe this may be from Finland. Stamping on the grip is very similar to another example that I have found that is supposed to represent British regimental marking. Apparently the British bought around 150,000 rifles and bayonets in the 1915-1916 time frame and then sold them when they no longer needed them. From what I understand they went to Russia and were used in the war with Finland where many were then captured by the Finns. That makes it considerably older than I originally thought. Still looking for more data though.
