1938 WW II ITALIAN CARCANO FOLDING BAYONET & STEEL SCABBARD

This bayonet with scabbard was part of my militaria collection which I started 40 years ago before I retired from the Marine Corps and am now liquidating.

In the interest of overwhelming interest, my daughter is listing only photos and dimensions of items so we can post as many as possible quickly. If time allows, descriptions will be added -- this Italian M91/38 folding bayonet and steel scabbard were made for use with Mannlicher-Carcano M-1891/38 and M-1938 rifles and carbines or carried on a belt. The folding mechanism is fully functional and operates smoothly, locking securely into both extended and folded positions. The blade has not been sharpened, has fullers and retains the original brown finish but only in the fullers. There are no nicks to the blade which has very minor oxidation on both sides. The crossguard is straight and has two wood grips solidly retained by screws with no damage whatsoever. The serial number is marked on the spine of the hilt -- H 82418 with circled capital letters \"PS\" above, nearest to the crossguard. The pommel and cross guard are still nicely blued but slightly worn on the high points and edges. This bayonet fits securely in the scabbard.

The steel scabbard is original to the bayonet with the original angled metal belt loop. It shows normal wear and is in nice condition.

Please see detailed photos for condition and decoration. All of my items are in mint to excellent condition unless otherwise noted with original patina.

The overall measurements are 12 1/4 inches long by approximately 1 3/4 inches wide at the crossguard. The scabbard is 8 inches long. .
