Recommended Posts

1856 Pattern British Bar On Barrel Enfield bayonet , maker marked Chavasse. Chavasse was a supporter of the American Confederacy and was based in Aston, Newton, Birmingham he remained in business at that address until 1868, when the financial ruin visited upon him by his support of the Confederacy finally caught up with him. Chavasse marked bayonets were imported by the South during the Civil War. It is likely this bayonet was either used or made for use in the American Civil war.
