This is not a 509th patch 

Human or not does it answer the question or is it totally made up like everything else I see on line that is AI.

this proves AI isn't as great as people think  

I'm looking forward to reading it.

A photo would be better as the exact shape varies. Take for instance this one: ^https://sites.google.com/view/us-brass-hilted-sword-bayonets/bayonets/pre-war-bayonets/model-1841-type-ii-harpers-ferry Model 1841 Rifle Bayonet   Type II - Stud with Guide - Harpers Ferry   Yes, the article says “25.3 mm” (0.996”) but part of it is wide and part narrow. That means it will fit on certain rifles with an attachment of a certain shape and not others, say like my Dahlgren bayonet:

Gunji and I did not see this car while out walkies, but he saw this news story he thought you may like. I hope the link works.    https://lightmailer.mail.com/IxDby6INEFM/deref/?redirectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.yahoo.com%2Fnews%2Fnoaa-wants-help-identifying-wwii-154003746.html   It’s not a very good photo but you guys seem to need to only see a few molecules of an old car to ID it.  Mikie

This letter is significant for Bowie knife fans as Schively is one of the early makers, and 1856 is very late for a new knife from one of the brothers, but it’s also possible that Dahlgren submitted a *bayonet* of Bowie design by Schively along with his prototype rifle. Very hard to tell from the wording. From the wording it also seems likely that no saber bayonet was planned by Dahlgren at the time. I should like to hear some opinions on what others think the letter means. #Bowie #Plymouth rifle

Kurta. Mikie - ok on the restoring👍.   The seller said it was German made.   This scabbard is made of metal, with felt inside.   I'm not savvy on all of the terminology, but the slot where the barrel of the rifle goes in is 1" I.D.     I will check out the site.    BTW, one other thing that is peculiar to me. The handle is solid brass, but the part that goes across (with the bayonet slot) is metal. Most of the ones I have seen online are both brass.   Thanks again for all the help! I really appreciate it!
