Japanese Naval Bayonet Wrare 1 Pc Rubber FrogscabbardSquarertade © ap6.0. Jfjd123 store. Outstanding, hard to come by japanese type 30 bayonet with oen piece rubberized combination frog and scabbard. Often referred to as a naval bayonet, it was reportedly used with the imperial navy's special type 99 rifle. The blade is un-marked and has a false edge. May have been used as larry johnson's book japaense bayonets suggests as a training bayonet (page 65). The blade is bright steel, shows age and has a couple of dings. The light wood grips has a screw and cap assembly. The numbers 94 are burned into the wood. The pommel relesae button works fine. The pommel top is numbered 188. Crossguard and pommel are blackened. The scabbard si a rare beauty. It is a combination one-piece rubbreized and scabbard. Light brown in color. There is an oval opening in the frog portion in back, similiar to that of leather frogs. The opeinng appears to have no functional purpose. Scabbard has one small flaw on reverse, not distracting. Great opportunity to own a hard to come by japanese bayonet rig.
