This fine Civil War edged weapon is an original saber bayonet made for the Whitney Model 1861 “Plymouth Navy Rifle”. Approximately 10,000 rifles with these sword bayonets were made.

The blade is in very good condition and bears the maker’s stamp “COLLINS & CO. / HARTFORD / CONN” on the left or reverse ricasso.  Obverse ricasso is blank. The total length of this bayonet is about 27.25” while the blade itself is 22.5” long.  Blade is bright and clean with no edge nicks.

The 4.5” long, all-brass cast hilt is secured to the tang by a single transverse steel pin through the guard.  The brass ribbed grip is strong and displays normal wear. Upper grip area is stamped with serial #5878 on the top surface. Inspector’s initial’s, “FCW” are stamped on the butt of the pommel. Brass has a mellow patina.

Leather scabbard is complete and unbroken and in very fine condition. Black bridle leather is rigid and in very good shape.  Stitching is complete and unbroken. Brass throat and tip are well rivetted in place. Throat retains its brass belt stud. Brass scabbard parts are clean and bright.

This is a very attractive and solid saber bayonet set; as good as they come.   [jet][ph:L]
