The broad yataghan-style blade is stamped \"RVL 3\", indicating issue to a Volunteer or Reserve naval unit, with additional inspection and acceptance marks visible on the ricasso. Developed following the adoption of the Martini-Henry rifle, these cutlass bayonets combined the role of a naval cutlass and socket bayonet, allowing them to be mounted directly onto the Martini-Henry Naval Rifle. Their limited production and naval service make them considerably rarer than standard British Army bayonets and highly desirable among collectors of Victorian naval edged weapons.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lets Talk Militaria UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65910011265373,"sku":"491","price":1100.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0883\/7824\/5469\/files\/download_90712f9b-4ee2-44e1-9031-cc7956edebeb.jpg?v=1789304781","url":"https:\/\/www.letstalkmilitaria.com\/products\/491-185971-pattern-royal-navy-martini-henry-naval-cutlass-bayonet-marked-rvl-3-with-scabbard","provider":"Lets Talk Militaria UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
