As you know, President Trump has decided that all USA citizens must pay import taxes on any items bought from overseas. He has withdrawn the $800 pre-tax allowance on imports and has also cancelled the exemption for antiques.
The amount of import tax payable is dependent on the country of manufacture of the item, NOT where it was bought/imported from.
For example,
The tariff on UK made items is 10% of the total amount, including the shipping fee.
On items manufactured in mainland Europe, the tariff is 15%.
Some countries incur a much higher percentage.
President Trump has insisted that these fees be paid BEFORE the item is imported, or the parcel will be refused entry into the US.
This basically means that Bygone Blades has to collect the US import tax from you and submit it to the carrier, who in turn pay the US customs.
After you have made your purchase, you will receive a separate invoice for the new import tax specific to the item purchased. This will need to be paid before your purchase is shipped.
Italian M1891 Mannlicher-Carcano Rifle Bayonet. TERNI. #2607005
The Italian model 1891 bayonet was made for the 1891 6.5mm Mannlicher-Carcano rifle and was used by Italian forces in both WW1 and WW2.
The 298mm single-edged blade has a deep fuller below a flat spine and terminates in a spear point. The blade is clean and in good condition with minor use-related wear. The ricasso is stamped with a worn TERNI makers mark. The obverse ricasso bears a worn armoury inspectors mark.
The blackened steel crosspiece has a ball finial and is stamped with the serial number of the rifle with which it was issued. The front of the crosspiece is stamped with the same inspectors mark as on the ricasso.
The wooden grip scales are in good condition with use related dings and marks. The blackened steel pommel is in good condition and the press-stud mechanism is in good working order.
The bayonet is complete with its fluted leather scabbard with brass locket and chape. The scabbard is in good condition. The bayonet sheathes and draws smoothly and is held firmly within the scabbard.
This is a very good example of a Model 1891 Italian Mannlicher-Carcano rifle bayonet.
