~ Krag Jorgensen M/1894 bayonet Modified to M1956 for the M1 Carbine ~

After WWII a total of 31,000 M/1894 and M/1894-43 bayonets for the Krag Jørgensen rifle was modified to fit the M1 US carbine. The modification was ordered by the Hærens Våpentekniske Korps.

At 2. November 1956 the Norwegian army ordered 30.000 bayonets and later additionally 1,000 more. It is not known which company performed the actual conversion. According to Walther Svendsen, Nordisk Våpenforum no. 3 1986 it should be a company in the Oslo area.

The blade is blackened and bears the Kbeneath the crown proof mark. The metal scabbard is numbered 102841 and comes with a green canvas frog.
According to accompanying Norwegian Armed Forces Museum this model of bayonet was used also by the German forces on Gewehr 211 during WWII and in 1952 Norway modified this model for us on the US Carabine M1.
