WW1 US AEF P17 Bayonet Remington NO SCABBARD

The WW1 US AEF P17 Bayonet, manufactured by Remington, was issued to American Expeditionary Forces during the First World War. This model was specifically designed for use with the U.S. Model 1917 Enfield rifle, a widely used service arm among U.S. troops in the conflict. The bayonet features a single-edged blade measuring approximately 17 inches in length, with an overall length of about 22 inches. The construction includes a blued steel blade with wood grips secured by two screws on the handle. The crossguard is marked with the Remington manufacturer stamp, along with U.S. government proof marks, signifying its official acceptance for military service. This listing does not include a scabbard. The P17 bayonet played a significant role as both a close-quarters combat weapon and utility tool for American forces in France. Its robust design contributed to its continued use beyond World War I by American and allied forces.
