Beschrijving
No4 MkII* spike bayonet geproduceerd door Baird in Belfast, een van de moeilijker te vinden producenten.
Mooi stuk voor de bajonetverzamelaar of voor de verzamelaar van britse militaria uit WO2. Bajonet in zeer mooie staat, drukknop werkend.
The No. 4 Mk. II* was a further simplified version, with the socket and blade two separate forgings. This lowered costs and allowed manufacture by subcontractors. This also disbursed production, mitigating the risk of production being interrupted by bombing. Two-piece construction gives the No. 4 Mk. II* its characteristic stepped join between blade and socket.
Four firms produced the No. 4 Mk. II*, all in the UK: Prince-Smith & Stells, Howard & Bullough, Lewisham Engineering, and the Baird Manufacturing Co. In total 1.4 million No. 4 Mk. II* bayonets were produced, over a million of which were produced by Prince-Smith. The other makers were much less prolific.
Baird Engineering Company of Belfast, Northern Ireland, produced approximately 101,103 bayonets from 1942–1944.
Unlike other makers of No. 4 Mk. II* bayonets, Baird secured the spike to the socket using a steel pin. Other makers welded the spike to the socket.
