Unknown variant of epee bayonet, similar to Gras. Barrel ring has no adjustment, hilt is more massive then in Gras and resembles Kropatschek. But mounting rail and generally back of the hilt appears to be made for Chassepot.
- Unusual crossguard construction
- No markings at all
- remnants of chrome or silver coating
- barrel ring with no adjustment or notch
- compared with standard Gras
- again with standard Gras
- with anothe brass hilt Gras-like which I belive is for Chassepot
- with typical chassepot
