This is the No4 spike bayonet, better known as the 'pig-sticker', as fitted to the British Lee-Enfield rifle no4 mk1 and its derivatives, in very good condition along with it's scabbard. This is the final mark of the spike bayonet, and had a socket constructed of sheet steel sections rather than a forging. Only 196,000 were made, all by Joseph Lucas from 1944 to 1945, before becoming obsolete in 1946. M/158 was their dispersal code which is stamped on the top of the socket under the black paint, with a forging mark '1' on the shaft, which was a separate piece from the socket. Fitted into a steel mk1 scabbard in good condition, late war dispersal code N64 marked on lip.
