1887 Mk III Enfield Bayonet by Wilkinson.

A scarce bayonet by Wilkinson, issued with the Martini Henry MkIV Rifle. Wilkinson only produced this bayonet during 1887 & 1888 before the contract had been cancelled in favour of the 1888 pattern bayonet for the new Lee rifle. The mark III differs from the Mark II in having an un-fullered blade and being slightly heavier. This one has been later issued to an Indian regiment as it has been engraved on the guard and scabbard with Indian arsenal marks. It is in superb condition with a nice clean blade and very good clear markings. The leather and steel scabbard is also in good order but does show signs of wear and use. It measures 24.75 inches long.
