I’m having trouble identifying this Bayonet. Any help is appreciated!
Hello -
There are no markings or engravings visibile. Seems to coincide with 1800 French design but several characteritics don’t align. Example: Hardwood handle versus brass, diamond shape inlay to secure handle attachment hardware, iron pommel (I think) vs. brass, pommel has a 90 degree flush versus about a 30 degree taper.
All metal parts seemed to be uniformly pitted vs. smooth. Thanks in advance for any insight!
