ORIGINAL 1920’S UNITED STATES NAVAL AVIATOR WINGS BADGE INSIGNIA, 2-3/4 INCH SIZE BADGE, PIN-BACK W/ OPEN CATCH. “MEYER METAL & SHIELD”. A naval aviator is a commissioned officer or warrant officer qualified as a crewed aircraft pilot in the United States Navy or United States Marine Corps. United States Coast Guard crewed aircraft pilots are officially designated as “Coast Guard aviators”, although they complete the same undergraduate flight training as Navy and Marine Corps crewed aircraft pilots, and are awarded the same aviation breast insignia. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you!
The buckle is pre WW2 era. The belt or sash buckle is about 6 1/4″ across and about 3 1/4″ high. It is in good condition with no broken or repaired places. Please look at all of the photographs as they represent the condition for the buckle.
This bayonet was made by Matsushita Kinzoku prior to 1942 when metal scabbards were replaced by wood or leather. As best I can discern the serial number appears to be W323510. The bayonet is about 20 inches long with a 15-3/4 inch blade. The scabbard is 16-1/4 inches long. Since its introduction in 1897 the Type 30 bayonet has seen many variations. This is a Variation D with a fullered (blood-groove) blade, a straight cross guard with a square end, a contoured riveted sandwhich grip, and a birds-head flat-sided pommel. I think that’s everything. The metal scabbard is tube-tipped. Condition is “as found” good. There is some rust but there is plenty of original blueing. The wood grip scales are tight and intact with an aged patina. It appears to be the factory blunt edge. There is no damage except for a few dents to the scabbard, as shown. These dings do not affect bayonet travel. The spring-loaded locking mechanism is fully functional and ready to mate with your vintage Arisaka rifle.
