Lot 396
A Swedish Mauser bayonet by Erik Anton Berg; 20.8cm blade marked 'E.A.B.' and '260' with crown above, crossguard marked 'No 123' and 'I 5/24' complete with scabbard and leather frog CONDITION REPORT: Unfortunately we could not arrange a delivery for this as it is a lethal weapon and you need to instruct your own courier to collect this. You can send a commission bid by email and I will confirm receipt. The scabbard doesn't really have any dents but it does have a little oxidisation on the top half, the top half which is not obscured by leather - from the tip upwards but this is not a big problem. Can't really see any major dents or problems. The serial numbers do not appear to match, serial number on the scabbard is 9 over a lower case I. 6 No 400, the number on the guard of the bayonet says 5 over lower case I 24 No 193. The press stud does function but it does not take much pressing to get the blade out of the scabbard. Neither blade or scabbard is bent or out of scabbard.
