Sword bayonet for the M-1855 Harper?s Ferry rifle.
Preferences would be:
1. Good quality reproduction- seems to have been a small number of these made years ago.
2. A bargain on an original in good condition- ha!
3. A really good price on one of the sutler row versions, which are available from one vendor with scabbard and frog for $175. Tough thing on these is I am going to have to do a ton of work to the blade to bring it close to an original in shape, length, and weight.
Also still looking for parts for an 1855 type II R-M build. Need lock, lower two bands, and band springs.
