WW2 British Sten Gun No 7 Bayonet With Scabbard

The WW2 British Sten Gun No 7 Bayonet is a rare and distinctive bayonet designed primarily for use with the Sten Mk V submachine gun during the latter stages of the Second World War. It features a blade style modeled after the No 5 Jungle Carbine bayonet, measuring approximately 8 inches in length, with a ribbed steel grip and characteristic muzzle ring. The No 7 bayonet incorporates a swiveling pommel, enabling attachment to both the Sten Mk V and the No 4 Lee-Enfield rifle, though it was seldom used in service due to limited issue and production. This example comes complete with its original metal scabbard, providing secure storage and transport. Regarded both for its distinctive engineering and its late-war introduction, the No 7 bayonet is of particular interest to collectors of British military edged weapons and those studying the evolution of World War II infantry equipment.
