    Type 30 Bayonet Identification

    I have a Type 30 Bayonet that I can not figure out the numbers are in location different from any I have seen. Can any of the knowledgeable people help me out with identification and possible dating?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Welcome to the Forum.

    What size is that muzzle ring hole, please? I wonder if it's been made to fit something else because my 2 type 30 bayonet examples don't have that catch in the cross piece? However my examples are later ones with "square" pommels.

    Japaneseicon Type 35 Bayonet. It's a modified Type 30 bayonet with a spring catch to hold it in the scabbard.

    These were made for the Navy ca. 1902-05. The Type 35 rifle was superseded by the Type 38 rifle in 1905, so they discontinued production of the Type 35 bayonet as well.
