I believe these were made to fit the Martini Henry Rifle. This bayonet was made by Wilkinson Sword Company in London and is dated 1889. The bayonet is in as found used condition. The blade clean with some age. and stain. The blade is nicely marked on both sides. The guard tang and pommel all show signs of cleaning and remain clean. The release mechanism is working properly. The two piece pressed leather handles are showing wear but they are in decent condition. There are contact marks and scuffs from carry. The bayonet measures approximately 23.75 inches overall. The scabbard is an original and numbered. Both metal ends have been cleaned but still show some surface rust and pitting. The leather body is intact and is fairly soft. The stitching looks good.
