B75 is the nearest one to our example with an overall length of 15 ½ inches and a socket length of3 inches. The muzzle ring diameter is 21.5mm with the stud to muzzle measurement being smaller than the usual 1.5 inches. Skennerton states that the main possibilities are cadet, constabulary or even artillery issue but no positive identification has been made. There is an unidentified mark at the base of the blade. This is a nice and scarce socket bayonet, c.1813 and worthy of more detailed research. The price includes U.K. delivery. BAYO 597
