Click on an image to enlarge
Here is a cool looking socket bayonet from the Revolutionary War era. This socket bayonet has a French style influence and is completely unmarked. It is probably an American made bayonet copied along the French pattern 1774 like the one illustrated on page 47 of the Swords & Blades of the American Revolution book by George C. Neumann. The bayonet measures 15-3/4ths inches in overall length with the socket making up 2-1/2 of those inches. Where the blade shank reached the bottom of the socket, it has the raised joint like the French Model 1750 socket bayonet. The socket has the right hand side channel that anglers towards the blade end. It has the raised lip on the back side of the socket. The blade has no flutes. The inside front of the socket measures .85 inches and the back side has the inside diameter of .92 inches but has some bends. The metal of the piece has a wonderful silver gray tone all over. This is a great piece of Rev War era history!
