From top to bottom

1934 : M1918 Swiss bayonet for Schmidt-Rubin Rifle K31
1929/30 : Type 30 Japanese bayonet for Type 38 Arisaka Rifle
1893 : M1989 Swiss bayonet for Schmidt-Rubin Rifle Models 1889, 1896/11
unknown year : M1906 sawback bayonet. This was a transitional bayonet using the older Vetterli sawback blade with a 'newer' style Schmidt-Rubin handle. The blade on this one is just under 19" long! What a beast.

All except for the Lee-Enfield bayonet, are complete with original scabbards and frogs.
