French Model 1886 /35 Lebel Rifle Bayonet Scabbard Hooked Quillon 2nd Variant
French Model 1886/35 Lebel Rifle Bayonet, the 2nd versions of this epee bayonet was 18″ OAL which this one is, and has a hooked quillon, the 13.25″ cruciform blade is in very good condition with light age patina, and two cartouches on the ricasso area. Good looking alloy handle, scabbard looks good, slightly bent a bit, but does not affect bayonet sliding in and out. Scabbard serial is faded, but does not appear to match, the guard shows cartouches and serial no with some age patina, some rust on it. These bayonets reflected a major change in design by the French, and were used from 1886 to WWII. The 2nd model was a shortened version (18 overall length) of the original Model 1886.
