9/28/23 – This is a scarce, end-of-war production T30 “pole bayonet”. These were made as a last-ditch effort to arm citizens of Japan in preparation for a US invasion. These bayonets were made with no slot for a rifle, and were instead meant to be affixed to a pole or firearm of any kind as a spear or polearm. This example is in great overall condition with a very nice blade that still retains most of the original finish. The edge is sharpened about 2/3rd’s of the way down from the tip. The base of the blade is maker stamped by Jinsen Arsenal. Known as a Variation N LB-163 in Labar’s book on Japanese bayonets. The cross guard has two holes for ambidextrous mounting. The cross guard is crude with mild patina but no major issues. The handle is squared off wood with 2 rivets and in great shape. The spine of the handle is proof stamped and lot numbered. Comes with a late-war bamboo wood scabbard as shown.
