Original period manufacture. A very clean, post Franco-Prussian War era Chassepot bayonet matched serial numbers blade to scabbard of C35405. The blade is very clean in factory polish with clear arsenal markings and date on the spine. Bright steel scabbard which is dent-free. just some scattered corrosion spotting. Brass grip with an operable lock button. Best of all is the original black leather Chassepot frog. It's quite sound for its age with just a little wear around the strap buckle.
