British Commonwealth Bayonets and Fighting Knives by Ian Skennerton & Brian Labudda Completely revised with new updates from prominent collectors in England, Australia, Canada, South Africa & New Zealand. This comprehensive study of British and related Commonwealth bayonets presents a considerable amount of hitherto unpublished material on the subject and considers the bayonet in a slightly different perspective than previous books on the subject; with a closer association to the appropriate rifle, carbine, or even pistol. In all, it is a most important and useful guide to the identification of British and Commonwealth bayonets and fighting knives. 484 pages – 80 new pages, colour plates Full A4 – larger page size than the old 1986 edition Hard covers, heavy duty dust jacket like ‘The Lee-Enfield’ final edition Expanded updates for Australia, New Zealand, Canada, India, South Africa, Reproductions & Fakes, Miscellaneous ~ Extended Appendices & Index New chapter on Fighting Knives, from 19th century to current issues New hi-definition images, earlier backgrounds & shadows removed
