A Swedish model 1896 knife bayonet and scabbard. The 21cm long blade has a central, vertical groove to both sides, comes to a point, and is sharpened along its lower edge. To its ricasso is stamped an anchor with an "E" superimposed to it, surmounted by a crown, and with "EJ" to its left, and "AB" to its right that represents "Eskilstuna Jernmanufactur AB (1899–1912)". To the reverse ricasso is stamped another crown. The blued cross guard has a circular muzzle guide above and a slightly hooked extension below. To this lower extension is stamped another crown. Stamped to the cross guard above the ricasso is a repetition of the stamping to the ricasso itself. The blued, hollow grip is cross-hatched and has a collar to its top with a slight depression to one side and a locking plunger arrangement descending at a 45 degree angle from the other. Both sides of its 23.5cm tall scabbard have a central, vertical groove, and the obverse has a throat screw beneath which is a frog lug. The opening of the scabbard is marked "EAB" for Erik Anton Berg (EAB) of Eskilstuna. Included is brown leather frog that is embossed to the reverse panel that includes a 1930 date.
