    Can anyone help with this item

    Not even sure it is UK or Commonwealth ~

    The bayonet has MA 1907 and 1 underneath, Handle has C on top of 52960 and various markings on the bottom of the blade.

    MA usually indicates that the item is of Australian manufacture. The initials 'MA' are found on the Australian-made Vickers guns. I don't know about other Australian equipment - as I only had an interest in the Vickers when I collected these guns. But I would think that I am probably correct.

    At a guess it's a Australian Pattern 1907 Bayonet

    MA 1 is a Pattern Mark for Late-1920s - 1953
