Last Saturday, as well as finding a Vickers P07, I also brought home a P07 Remington : 11-15 dated. What caught my eye initially, was the fact this P07 had no quillon, but also... no 'Clearance Hole'. The blade itself is in good condition, unsharpened, no pitting, but there are a few light stains in the last quarter towards the tip.
Ricasso stamping on both sides are a mix of good, and light, but all are readable. The blade has been through '3' refurbs = 22, 24, 32... yet the clearance hole modification was never implemented. The scabbard itself is sound, with the Locket and Chape having a very similar patina to the blade. Both the Locket and Chape are stamped 'RE' for Remington, so I am convinced that both the bayonet and scabbard have been together since manufacture. I'm extremely pleased with this find, and it's now a part of my 'Remington' P07 family. |

My main collection is the P07, but I look equally for the P13 and M17. I have a smaller associated collection of French, Belgian, and Canadian examples, with a even smaller side collection of Imperial German and Turkish.

I only collect British bayonets. For interest, these are for the Martini Rifle (Henry/Metford/Enfield) |
