Rare WWI Royal Marines Issued Hooked Quillon 1907 Pattern SMLE Bayonet & Scabbard

This is a very rare first year of manufacture SMLE 1907 Pattern Hooked Quillion bayonet with scabbard. The bayonet was made by Wilkinson Sword in October 1908 (10'08), who only made 25,000. The pommel is stamped with the initials "RM" Royal Marines and the blade with the capitial letter N = Royal Navy property stamp. Very few of these bayonets now survive and even fewer that were issued to the Royal Marines.
