Pattern 1907 SMLE Bayonet Question.

I've seen some pics of a couple Pattern 1907(1st Pattern)bayos out there that look longer than the 17" that I'm used to seeing them at. AFAIK 17" is the longest type, but I've seen a couple images of what appears to be P.07's w/significantly longer blades. Were there longer patterns ever made?

I can't find any british bayonet ( Including Commonwealth models ) with more than 17", leaving apart old socket bayonets with 21.50 "
Sword bayonet for use on the .30–06 caliber U.S. Rifle Model of 1917, had the same blade length 17 inch.
