Item #61303 : Original era manufacture. A sound example of a British manufactured bayonet, which was imported into the United States by both the North & South, during the Civil War.17 inch polished steel blade in clean condition. Proofed on the base of the blade, with a steel patina overall. The locking ring turns easily. Good quality, old reproduction brass mounted leather scabbard and frog. Frankly the scabbard and frog have enough patina to almost pass for real.
