Need help with marks on British 1907 bayonet

[mayralphie]

Marks are- PA B. VLS. 194. Pic not good

[mayralphie]

The PA has a diamond shape between the B. And it is above the VLS mark

To start the ball rolling .... I'd go for B being Battalion, and the VLS being Volunteers ...

Interesting that its been cut down...I've seen that done on Bayonets issued to Indian troops

[mayralphie]

Second look at marks. They may be "P" than an arrow symbol then diamond symbol and "B". VLS. 194.

Also has a matching shortened scabbard

[mayralphie]

Don't know who shortened this bayonet but it has the black paint coating that they used in WW 2 so it was probably shortened in the 40's

[mayralphie]

Anyone have an idea. P B. VLS

[mayralphie]

Don't know how I missed it but bayonet is Canadian arsenal marked. Really faint mark on butt opposite regimental msrks
