The L1A1 is a Knife bayonet for use on the 7.62 mm NATO L1A1 Self Loading Rifle (SLR) variant of the Belgium FN–FAL selective-fire rifle. This example was made at the Royal Small Arms Factory (RSAF) at Enfield in 1959.

The 202mm single edged blade has a rounded spine and a clip point. The blade has a long fuller with squared ends. The ricasso is stamped with the Enfield factory mark, a Broad Arrow and the date 59. The L1A1 has a waisted crosspiece. The steel grips are fixed securely by two rivets. The grip scales are both stamped with Broad Arrows. The pommel is stamped with the Enfield factory mark and a Broad Arrow. The release catch for the locking mechanism sits within a recess but protrudes slightly from the pommel, a feature exclusive to the L1A1.

The bayonet is complete with its steel scabbard with round frog stud. The scabbard is in good condition and the bayonet sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard.

This is a good example of the scarce British L1A1 SLR bayonet.
