Original Item: Straight from our discovery of arms in the royal palace of Nepal. The P-1885 Long Lever Martini Infantry Rifle was initially issued with an 18" bladed Sword Bayonet with a fullered blade and leaf spring on the locking mechanism. This was the P-1887 Mk. 1. However, in 1888 the P-1887 Mk. 3 was approved with an unfullered blade and a coil spring on the locking mechanism.
This is an original P-1887 Mk3 Bayonet with colonial issue brass fitted scabbard. Each sword bayonet bears British maker markings and dates and is offered in very good condition.
Intended for the MkIV "Long-Lever" British Martini Henry, this will also fit British Martini Henry Mk I, II, and III Rifles fitted with sword bayonet lugs.
