    Description

    Italian Model 1891 Carcano Knife Bayonet 1K4762 TERNI 12" Blade. This is a knife bayonet used from the period 1891 into WWII and was designed to fit the Italian Model 1891 Carcano Infantry Rifle. There are several bayonet sub-models: Model 1891; Model 91/97; and Model 87/91/15. Within the first model are at least 5 or 6 known variations, but all with the same basic style and a side-mounted release in the pommel; the second model has a unique locking arrangement with the release on the butt of the pommel; the third model usues a Vetterli-Vitali cross-guard and slot. All models have wood grips, steel pommel, crossguard, and blade. (Per C. Allen Russell)
