US M4 Bayonet for the M1 Carbine. Leather Handle

A very nice example of the US M4 Bayonet and scabbard as used on the M1 Carbine.

I believe this one to have been manufactured between January and December 1945 and is marked under the crossguard, “US M1 Imperial” with the bomb ordnance mark. These first appeared at the end of 1944 and I understand mostly saw service in the Pacific theatre.

This example has the early leather handle (later produced pieces had a plastic handle) and combined with a correct wartime scabbard everything would seem to suggest a wartime production.

Overall condition is very good with very little loss to the Parkerised finish.
