Swiss 1957 Bayonet With Scabbard

The Swiss 1957 Bayonet with Scabbard is a Cold War-era military edged weapon originally designed for use with the Swiss Stgw. 57 (SIG SG 510) assault rifle. This bayonet features a robust, single-edged steel blade measuring approximately 9.5 inches in length. The blade is complemented by a sturdy steel pommel and crossguard, and the handle is typically constructed from metal and ribbed black synthetic material for improved grip. The accompanying scabbard is made of durable metal and includes a frog stud for attaching to standard Swiss military gear and belts. Markings on the blade and scabbard often indicate official Swiss Army acceptance and production details. Issued to Swiss armed forces beginning in 1957, this bayonet reflects the nation’s mid-20th century military equipment standards. The Swiss 1957 Bayonet with Scabbard is valued for its functional design, durability, and association with Switzerland’s long history of reserve military service.
