Turkish M1874 Peabody bayonet
length: 28"
A relatively scarce bayonet, this was for the Turkish Peabody rifle, Model
1874. Unfortunately missing the grip scales, which were either wood or
leather. One of the heaviest of the yataghan sword bayonets of the 1800's.
Blade has been sharpened. These bayonets are worth $150-$250 when
complete, without the scales this one's a steal.
blade: 22 1/2"
blade width: 1 3/16"
grip: 5"
guard: 4 3/4"
weight: 2 lbs 1 oz
