WWI US M1905 Bayonet with Web Scabbard: Springfield Arsenal 1907
M1905 bayonet has fullered blade with bright finish, with the 1/4" bluing line beyond the guard, a few very light age blemishes, quite nice overall. Ricasso has Springfield Arsenal and Ordnance bomb marking with 1907 date; reverse has "US" and accountability number "220310". Hilt shows light patina on the guard, smooth walnut grip scales, and blued pommel with the "A" stamp on the mortise indicating that it was altered to incorporate the improved version of the catch. Web covered rawhide scabbard remains in nice condition, with a good clear 1917 dated maker stamp on the leather tip.
