    Need help identifying a bayonet

    Hi All,

    I have a bayonet that was given to me and I can not identify it.

    It is about 13 5/8" long.

    On one side below the pommel is an outspread eagle, facing to it's right.

    On the other side is a gear with a sword through it. Below it, are the initials

    I.N.I.


    Thanks for any help,

    Henry

    Henry,over at yahoo in the groups section is a bayonet collector bunch.They have a lot of pics and some good collectors there.They ID a French 1853 musket bayonet for me.
    If shooting,fixing,making and thunking were easy.Everyone would be doing it.

    There are four types of homicide: felonious, accidental,
    justifiable, and praiseworthy.

    Are you sure thast I.N.I ?, Ithink it may be I.M.I and the gear with the sword thru it sounds kinda like an israeli logo to me. But then again I could be wrong. Frank

    Hi All,

    I was informed on another website that the bayonet is a CETME. The poster provided photos and it's a match.
