WW2 British Jungle Carbine No 7 Bayonet With Scabbard

The WW2 British Jungle Carbine No 7 Bayonet with Scabbard is a military edged weapon produced for use with the No. 5 Mk I “Jungle Carbine” rifle during World War II. Introduced in 1944, the No 7 bayonet features a distinctive design allowing it to be fitted to both rifles and submachine guns, including the Sten Mk V. The blade is double-edged, measuring approximately 8 inches in length, with a spear-point profile. The hilt incorporates a plastic or Bakelite grip and a swiveling pommel to facilitate attachment. The included steel scabbard is typically coated with blackened paint for corrosion resistance and features a webbing frog for belt mounting. The No 7 bayonet was primarily intended for troops serving in jungle environments, offering enhanced versatility compared to previous models. It is recognized for its unique multi-mount capability and limited production, having been issued late in World War II and shortly thereafter.
