From the number of certain or probable or possible Australian HQ P.1907's that keep turning up over here I sometimes think that the lads must have left a whole bunch behind at a certain battlefield...

Anyway, this is but one marking from a HQ P/1907 with other markings suggesting Australian use that I submit as a Christmas present for SS to comment on... And when we get the answer to that one then I'll show the other markings - including the very interesting ones on the scabbard!

Perhaps another teaser is needed to get our mate SS warmed up... :whistle:

Not SOS just a sale mark applied when it was sold from stores from the Poms to the Kiwis

You are quite right on both counts! I posted these in 1915 when I was 'nobbut a lad' in bayonet collecting and identifying these ANZAC bayonets!
