Description:
This is a very nice US M1873 Trapdoor Socket Bayonet with original scabbard and frog. The 18" blade retains 90-95% of the original bluing with US on the ricasso and blade small nicks/imperfections, only light marks from age with light oxidation at the neck. The neck shows minor wear on both sides which continues into the sides of the socket. The 3" socket is in very good condition with light marks from use and some oxidation. The very good scabbard retains most of the original bluing with light oxidation, tiny scratches on a dent free surface. This comes with a Hoffman device, leather and brass frog in very good condition with the US on a stippled brass casting with some scattered verdigris, tight stitching and a fine patina.
