Rare Russian M1843 Luttich Carbine Bayonet by P J Malherbe. Description Leaf-shaped, double-edged blade with short, narrow central fuller. Brass cross hilt with twin forward-curving quillons, ribbed solid brass grip. External leaf spring secured with a single screw, its fixed button protruding from the opposite side of the grip. Black leather washer. No scabbard. The ricasso of the blade is stamped on one side with the maker&#acute;s mark &#acute;P J MALHERBE A LIÈGE&#acute; above an inspection stamp and the number &#acute;2&#acute;. The hilt is stamped next to the leaf spring near the pommel with a crown over &#acute;B&#acute;. The .704 calibre Brunswick rifle was designed by Captain Berners, a Jaeger officer of the Brunswick Army, and adopted with some modifications by the British Army in 1836. The Russian Imperial Army essentially copied the British Brunswick as their M1843 Luttich Carbine. The carbines and associated bayonets were manufactured on their behalf in Liège, Belgium by the gunmaker Pierre Joseph Malherbe “ &156;Lüttich&157; is the German name for Liège. Numbers produced are uncertain but low “ anecdotally I read that the observed serial numbers on the carbines have been below 1000, and production of the bayonets was probably equal. The Luttich carbines were used in the Crimean War, issued to specialist Russian sharpshooters as it was the only rifled long arm in their arsenal. The British had already replaced the Brunswick with the improved Minie rifle issued to all their infantry, and introduced the new Enfield rifle over the course of the conflict. Examples of the Luttich found outside Russia may well have been originally taken as trophies in that conflict. The blade&#acute;s lower section has some light patination and spots of pitting, a larger patch of pitting around the tip section on one side. The tip of the blade is slightly chipped. The hilt is in good condition with an even patina. The locking mechanism moves freely.

British WW1 1907 Pattern Bayonet with Early Hooked Quillon, 2nd Battalion Loyal Lancashire Regiment, East African Campaign. Description Straight single-fullered knife blade, steel hilt with muzzle ring and distinctive forward-curving lower quillon, wood slab grips secured by two screws, steel beaked pommel with locking button. Brown leather No. 1 Mk 2 scabbard with steel locket & teardrop frog stud and steel chape piece. Brown leather 1914 Pattern frog with buckled retaining strap and rear strap to attach a helve carrier. This bayonet is still in its original configuration with hooked lower quillon and no oil hole: the quillon was ordered to be removed from new production bayonets in October 1913 and existing examples were often removed by grinding during repair. The ricasso is stamped on one side with a crown over 1907 (the pattern), 11 &#acute;10, indicating the manufacture date to be November 1910 and the maker&#acute;s mark &#acute;EFD&#acute; for the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield. It is stamped on the other side with a &#acute;broad arrow&#acute; War Department stores mark, two crown inspection marks with &#acute;E&#acute; for Enfield, a small stamp made up of another broad arrow over &#acute;EFD&#acute; over &#acute;51&#acute;, and an &#acute;X&#acute; indicating that the blade passed a manufacturer&#acute;s bending test “ this appears to have been double-stamped. The pommel is stamped with &#acute;2.N.L.&#acute;, indicating the 2nd Battalion, The Loyal North Lancashire Regiment, and the weapon number &#acute;479&#acute;. The scabbard is identically stamped at the throat with &#acute;479&#acute;, confirming that they are an original pair, and next to the staple on the throat and chape pieces with a faint mark that looks like &#acute;AM&#acute; over &#acute;OA.12&#acute; “ this probably refers to a manufacturer. The leather body of the scabbard is stamped next to the seam with the date &#acute;13&#acute; as well as &#acute;1113&#acute;, &#acute;I^M&#acute;, (where the ^ is a broad arrow), which I think is an Indian stores mark, and the letter &#acute;A&#acute;. The rear of the frog is faintly, informally marked by poking dots and scratching lines, with what looks like &#acute;18278&#acute; and &#acute;F.T.&#acute;, which might be a previous owner&#acute;s initials and soldier number. The frog is of the British 1914 Pattern (part of the Infantry Equipment, Pattern 1914 set of leather webbing). It retains the strap on its reverse side which could be used to attach the helve carrier for an entrenching tool. The 2nd Battalion of the Loyal North Lancashire Regiment was one of only two British battalions deployed to East Africa during the First World War, and the only battalion of British regulars (the other being the newly formed 25th Battalion, Royal Fusiliers). At the outbreak of the war it was deployed to Bangalore, India, joining the 27th (Bangalore) Brigade of the British Indian Army. The Bangalore Brigade was tasked with invading German East Africa via the port of Tanga (in modern-day Tanzania), arriving in November 1914. Despite a substantial numerical advantage this attack, now known as the Battle of Tanga, failed with disproportionate casualties for the invasion force and substantial losses of equipment. The 2nd Battalion had made better progress than most of the British-Indian force but had to withdraw back to their transport ships, which took them to Mombasa. The German East African forces fought a highly mobile guerilla campaign ranging across what is now Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Malawi, the Congo, Rwanda, Burundi and Mozambique, under the capable command of Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck. While their strength rose to a peak of 11,000 men at the end of 1915 they remained far outnumbered by British Empire forces, who also had support from Belgian and Portuguese allies. Both sides suffered greatly from supply shortages and disease, and the 2nd Battalion was no exception “ it had to be withdrawn from the fight in May 1916 due to ill health among its troops. Early German successes such as Tanga did not translate to long-term advantage, and from 1916 on they were forced out of German East Africa and ground down by the diverse British Empire force, by then under the command of equally capable guerilla fighter Jan Smuts. Their last 1,500 men surrendered in accordance with the Armistice in November 1918. After recuperating in South Africa the 2nd Battalion was transferred to Egypt in January 1917. It seems to have remained in poor condition and was posted to guard lines of communication. In May 1918 it arrived in France and was attached to the 34th Division, with which it took part in various battles of the Hundred Days Offensive in the closing stages of the war. The Loyal North Lancashire Regiment became the Loyal Regiment (North Lancashire) from 1921. It was amalgamated with the Lancashire Regiment in 1970 to form the Queen’s Lancashire Regiment, which merged with two others in 2006 to form the present-day Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment. There is good reason to think that this bayonet was carried by the 2nd Battalion during their time campaigning in East Africa. We know that before the war the 2nd Battalion was posted to India and had been there since 1910, the year of this bayonet&#acute;s manufacture “ before that date it had been in Mauritius so it was certainly away from home when the new bayonet was delivered to them. The scabbard is dated 1913, is probably of Indian manufacture but is identically numbered to the bayonet, suggesting they were brought together in the regimental armoury in 1913 while it was stationed there. This gives the overall picture of pre-war equipment that would have been part of the 2nd Battalion&#acute;s stores in India as of 1914, meaning it is very likely to have been taken with them and carried into the Battle of Tanga and subsequent engagements. The blade is mostly bright, one area of spotted pitting and patination to the spine. The blade retains its blued area at the ricasso. The hilt, exposed tang and pommel have a blued finish. The wood grips have only a couple of dents and some patches of oil staining. The leather scabbard body has light rubbing and surface-level cracking. It is quite flexible, and one should take care to support it once the blade is withdrawn from it. The scabbard fittings are blued, one dent to the chape piece which does not interfere with sheathing and drawing. The frog is in good condition, its leather flexible, some rubbing to the edges on the front side and the retaining strap. One small keyhole-shaped hole to the rear side of the belt loop, just under 1cm long.

Sn 22019 -. This is Katana blade has been assessed by UK Japanese sword expert Bill Tagg. A copy of his hand written assessment notes accompany this piece. His notes state “A Showa period katana blade in 20th century resting mounts (shira saya). Probably a war time sword in shin gunto mounts, they must have been very badly damaged with war service and water saturation from the look of the once heavily rusted tang. Put into shira saya to protect the blade which has a just visible signature of a seki gunto smith ‘NOSHU SEKI JU MATSUDA KANE TAKA SAKU’, real name is ‘MATSUDA TAKE ICHI’ born 1911 a student of ‘KOJIMA KANE MICHI’ worked as a gunto smith does not seem to have entered any competitions. No mention of him making gendaito?. There is no sign of either Showa or seki arsenal stamps? Maybe pre 1939 manufacture. Have to class it as High Grade Showa-To because of its condition. Out of polish & heavily scratched & stained. Needs professional polish to reveal workmanship (see fuller & Grgory 1st book for 3 oshigata of this man pages 37 & 38 also Marcus Sesko book on sword smiths page 274. A big strong blade with dramatic hamon, would look good with re-polish”. In his illustrations of the blade he adds “cutting edge is 67.5 cms, total length is 90.5 cms. He also translates the tang signature & describes other blade and tang characteristics and dimensions which can be seen in the images.

Long English Plug Bayonet with Marked Curved Blade, Late 17th C. The plug bayonets of England had curved blades more often than any other country. This example with curved single-edged unfullered 17 5/8″ blade of wedge section, the last 7″ double-edged; stamped with full-face king's head mark on both sides (worn). Brass guard with vertically recurved quillons and plain tapering cylindrical pommel attached to the dark turned wood grip; brass base ferrule. Overall length 22 1/4″. A plug bayonet with nearly identical blade and bearing the same maker's mark is pictured in “The Plug Bayonet”, by R.D.C. Evans, fig. 78. Though probably originating around 1550, the plug bayonet had a relatively short span of use from around 1650-1720 (except in Spain where they were used into the 19th C). Their rise in popularity largely paralleled the development of standing armies in Europe, which were realizing the importance of the musketeer, while at the same time not wanting to wholly abandon the pike. In this sense the plug bayonet can be considered a transitional weapon. However, despite its use as a dagger on its own, it was soon found to be impractical since it's use prevented the musket from being fired. Countless soldiers also found great difficulties in removing a stuck plug bayonet from the muzzle, rendering the musket useless as a firearm. Many were damaged while being removed and as a result relatively few survive. For these reasons it was soon superseded by the socket bayonet, which did not affect the musket's ability to fire and could much more easily be removed. ON HOLD
