Scabbard is NOT included. It was made in June of 1916. The U.S. manufacturers made Pattern 1914 rifles and Pattern 1913 bayonets for the British to help supply them for the war effort. As the war dragged on and the U.S. got involved they started making a U.S. version M1917 rifle and M1917 bayonet. Both rifles and bayonets were identical, except for calibers. To differentiate the bayonets from the SMLE rifles, vertical grooves in the grip were carved for the 1914 bayonet. These also fit the Winchester 1897 shotgun. The two manufacturers were Remington Arms Co. and Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Overall, this bayonet is in Very Good - Very Good Plus condition, considering its age and history. The press catch is functional with stiff spring tension. Both the pommel and guard are securely fastened to the tang. They have light scrapes and finish loss along the leading edges. The metal has started to turn to a darker patina color. The two screw escutcheons securely fasten the wood grips to the tang. They have light oxidation and strong slots with no signs of tool marks. However, they are partially filled with grit. The wood panels have a compressions and draglines. The wood has darkened with age. The spine, fullers and sides have a layer of light superficial oxidation and scattered discoloration. There are no nicks or dings on the blade edge and it appears to have its original factory edge. The tip is intact and comes to a sharp straight point. Most of the remaining finish has started to turn to a darker patina color. The left ricasso is marked "1913 / 6-16 / W". The right ricasso is marked with a broad arrow and British proof marks. This bayonet will be a great addition to your British WWI rifle, or a bayonet collection in general.
