This is a nice example of the French model 1866 Chassepot sword bayonet. The steel single edged ‘T’ back Yataghan blade with fuller is clean and 57 ½ cm length. It has the correct steel hooked quillon with muzzle ring. It has a ribbed brass grip with flat spring and steel push button. The blade has small WKC marks. The cross guard is stamped. It is complete with the correct steel scabbard.
