This is a naval cutlass bayonet designed to fit the Enfield 1858 pattern rifle which was a .577 calibre rifle, used by the British Army. It has an un-fullered blade length of 680mm with 1 edge and the grips are made from diced leather. When attached to a rifle, it would give a distance of roughly 2.25m (7ft) between the soldier wielding it and the end of the bayonet.
