    Mystery Socket Bayonet

    Been a while since I managed two blades/bayonets in such a short time period. Found this at one of the local antique shops today. No idea what it is, no markings I can find, it's fairly clean so I don't think it ever had any.

    Maybe a US 1816 bayonet?

    Socket is 3 1/8th inches long

    Socket diameter is 7/8 inches

    Overall length is 19 3/8 inches

    Blade at widest is 13/16 inches

    There is a blood groove in the top of the blade that is 9 1/8 inches long starting at the tip

    I checked the length in Kiesling and didn't come up with a match. I haven't gone through all the photos yet. That takes a while.
