Condition Grade: Very Good condition, displaying exceptional eye appeal and pristine original factory hilt ergonomics.
Condition Issues: The antique blade displays minor surface scuffing from historical field maintenance, light drawing marks, and sparse superficial carbon spotting.
Dimensions: The factory-ground clip-point blade measures exactly 10 inches in length.
Pertinent Markings & Features: The ricasso is boldly struck with a crisp, authentic "US" government ownership mark on one side and its corresponding "1900" production date on the reverse, flanked by original smooth walnut handles, a standard muzzle-ring crossguard, and a pristine birds-head pommel tracking assembly.
Completeness: The bayonet itself is completely unaltered and factory-correct, retaining its operational push-button lug catch, and comes paired with a modified, matching steel combat scabbard.
Historical Background: Originally engineered as an experimental Bowie bayonet for the Philippine Insurrection, this scarce Springfield Armory weapon represents a single-year production run of only 2,800 units, making it an incredibly unique centerpiece of American military history.
