This Japanese Arisaka bayonet was produced by the TALW Arsenal. It features a straight, single-edged blade with a long fuller and a hooked quillon. The wooden grips are secured by two screws to the steel tang, and the ricasso carries the proper arsenal marking.

In Johnson’s classification, this example is listed as Variation I, while in Labar’s system it corresponds to Variation Q (LB-145). The rarity rating is Uncommon 3, making it less frequently encountered than standard production models.

The bayonet is accompanied by LBS-9 scabbard and a LBF-63 frog, both correct for this variation. Altogether, it represents a desirable and uncommon example of a Japanese Arisaka bayonet issued during the wartime period.
