I may have the style of bayonet & scabbard you're looking for.
Some kind of early plastic (Nylon? Bakelite?) bayo is the spike with the square "S".
There is no frog, but it looks like it snapped into a couple of "buttons" for lack of the correct term.
Mine came with a '42 savage like yours, but not being a collector, I just wiped it with oil & stored it.

I totally agree with the suggestion to check out What Price Glory Militaria for a Pattern-1937 Bayonet Frog. I have not had any bad experiances with that lot.
Also might not hurt to check out another Reenactors Kit site called "Bayonet Inc.". I got a bayonet frog (Indian made specific for the No.4 Spike Bayonet) for around $8. Also check out International Military Antiques, I think they also have bayonet frogs. Most of the bayonet frogs that I have I found at gun shows for fairly cheap. Hope I helped out a bit. Mark |

Somerset Light Infantry, 43rd. (Wessex) Division, not totally sure if I want to portray the 4th or 7th Bn. yet. It is still a work in progress at this point. I hooked up with a group that portray Special Air Service shortly after moving to the Lower 48 and was with them for a couple years. I have always had my heart set on portraying a regular Tommy, with no Denison Smock, special helmets, etc. So around Jan. I made my mind up to portray the county regiment from where my Dad's family is from, hence the Somerset Light Infantry.
I live in Toledo, Ohio (I don't like it much at all) and will be attending an event at Fort Meigs here in Toledo this weekend. I have had auto problems and the cash flow has been a bit inconsistent here lately, so it might be a while before I can get to more events, but that might change. I still plan to go to events with my friends from the SAS unit, seeing as I am probably one of the very few in the States that have desire to portray the Somersets, and I don't fancy going at it totally on my own, but that might change also, never know. Mark I think this post is way off topic with concerns to the No.4 Spike Bayonet...LOL. |
