retaining its' original length of 5 & 1/2 inches. Another one perfect

| Excavated Confederate Tredegar Iron Works Bayonet |
|
| NEW !
Here is a good condition excavated bayonet, that is absolutely,
positively Confederate ! It's the pattern often called a "Tredegar
Bayonet", as most are believed to have been manufactured in
Richmond, though it's also possible some were made in Raleigh,
North Carolina. They are easily identified by their narrow triangular
blade, that completely lacks a fuller or blood groove, instead having
three flat sides. Unlike many dug examples, the blade on this one
is complete to the tip, with only a slight bit of waviness. The socket
and lock-ring are all there, though the back edge of the socket is
broken, and there's a tiny bit of metal loss on the front edge of the
socket. These bayonets are quite uncommon though, and a perfect
dug specimen can bring as much as $6-800 ! This one has some
pitting, but has been cleaned and preserved, leaving it totally stable
now. It's priced accordingly for the pitting and minor damage . A
good solid Confederate Blade that you don't see often ! Recovered
South Carolina.

Ricasso is marked with a T and a J . The back of the socket is marked with four hash marks, IIII, on one side, and three capital letter H's (H H H) on the other.
