SOLD - Early 1886 Lebel Bayonet With Scabbard

Description

2/27/25 - For sale is a great and original condition 1886 Lebel cruciform bayonet. Condition wise, this is a relatively average example, but what makes it special is it has the full 20 1/4 inch blade and its original hooked quillion, very distinct features of the original unmodified examples for these bayonets. There is a mild patina throughout the spike and crossguard section of the bayonet, along with some very minor spots of rust on both the bayonet and scabbard. Scabbard does retain a significant amount of its original blued finish. Overall a nice early example.
