Description

*British, 1949, No 9 MK1. Socket Bayonet,  Made by ROF Poole*

Approximate Measurements: 19.5cm blade, 25.cm overall
Marked P1949, G5 B

Socket bayonet for use with the .303 caliber Lee-Enfield No. 4 rifle. The No. 9 MK1 was the result of a post-war effort to replace the No. 4 spike bayonet. It was a straightforward, practical design with a robust socket attached to the clip-point blade of the No. 5 Mk. I bayonet. The No. 5 scabbard was retained for use with the No. 9 Mk. I bayonet. Production began in 1947, even prior to official approval of the No. 9 Mk. I.

Approximately 200,000 No. 9 Mk. I bayonets were produced at the Royal Ordinance Factory, Poole, from 1947–1949. The Poole bayonets are the earliest documented production of the No. 9 Mk. I bayonet. Poole’s maker mark is a letter “P” inside a circle, followed by the year of manufacture.

*Condition*
This bayonet is in good used condition. Please see photographs as part of the condition report.
