US WWI M1917 Rifle Bayonet: Remington

US WWI M1917 Rifle Bayonet: Remington

Bayonet for the M1917 Rifle has fullered blade in very good condition with just a few minor age blemishes, gray Parkerized finish throughout but for a small bit of bluing extending beyond the guard to the ricasso, as in the early M1905 bayonets where the tang was blued but the blade finished bright.  Ricasso has "1917" over Remington circular marking on one side, Ordnance bomb and eagle proof stamps with "U.S." on the other.  Hilt has dark blued finish on the pommel, guard, and tang, with walnut scale grips.  Finish is abraded on one side of the muzzle ring.  Second pattern olive drab leather scabbard has dark patina on the steel throat and drag, good overall condition.
