British Enfield bayonet m/1853.

Nation : British
Local Price : £95.00

British 18th Century Land Pattern Socket Bayonet. #2306007. The “Land Pattern” bayonet came in a wide variety of socket lengths and blade profiles, the bayonets being made by a variety of makers both in England and in India. These bayonets were made for use with several different muskets including carbines. The British Board of Ordnance, the East India Company (EIC) and the various Indian states all made use of these bayonets at the end of the 18th and early 19th Centuries.This bayonet has a total length of 430mm (17 inches) comprising a 100mm long socket with an internal muzzle ring diameter of 24.5mm at the back and 23.3mm at the front. The triangular blade measures 320mm (12.5 inches). The MRD and socket length is pretty much the same as those for use with the Brown Bess musket but the shortness of the blade suggests that the bayonet was used with a carbine of a similar calibre. It is possible that the blade was shortened and re-profiled but I don't think so.The bayonet is in good condition with some shallow pitting. The face of the blade is stamped with a maker’s mark.This is an interesting example of a late 18th Century carbine socket bayonet.

French M1866 Chassepot Bayonet by St Etienne, 1871. Description Single-fullered &#acute;yataghan&#acute; downward-curving blade, cross hilt with muzzle ring and hooked lower quillon with ball finial. Ribbed cast brass grip and beaked pommel, attached to the tang with two steel rivets, one of which secures the external leaf spring which actuates the locking catch. Steel scabbard with frog loop. Blade length: 57.5cm (~22 5/8 inches), overall length 70cm (~27.5 inches), muzzle ring diameter 17.5mm. The spine of the blade is engraved in cursive script &#acute;St Etienne Mai 1871t, meaning it was made at the state arms factory at St Etienne in May 1871. The blade is stamped at the shoulder on one side with two French &#acute;poincon&#acute; inspection stamps. The upper face of the hilt and the quillon are stamped with further poincons, along with the number &#acute;4&#acute; and &#acute;248&#acute;. The hilt is stamped on one side with the serial number &#acute;J 70126&#acute;. The scabbard is stamped near the throat with the serial number &#acute;FG . 81366&#acute;, indicating a non-matching pair with the blade. 1871 was the first year of the new Third Republic, after the defeat of Napoleon III in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 brought about his deposition as Emperor and the end of the Second French Empire, making this one of the first &#acute;republican&#acute; marked bayonets. Its maker is marked simply as &#acute;St Etienne&#acute;, the plant shedding its old title of the &#acute;Manufacture Imperiale de St Etienne&#acute;. The blade is bright with some light spots of patination in the fullers and near the tip, some scratches to the edge bevel. A few small nicks to the edge, which is unsharpened.Â The hilt, steel parts in the grip and the scabbard have some light patination, the grip rivets and locking button are bright. The brass grip is lightly patinated with only a couple of tiny dents. The scabbard retains its original blueing with some spots of patination and a few small dents near the chape that do not interfere with sheathing and drawing.
