Australia. Owen Mk I Bayonet.
The Owen Mk. I bayonet is a newly manufactured Model 1907 bayonet with a 254 mm (10-inch) blade and a 127 mm (5-inch) fuller. Owen Mk. I bayonets were manufactured at the Small Arms Factory No. 3 in Orange between 1944 and 1945, and at the Lithgow Small Arms Factory in 1953. The wooden grips were made by Slazenger.
