More on the Baker bayonets, here on the forum

I posted it on a bayonet forum and it turns out to be a Prussian bayonet from around 1790.

Hi,
Glad you got an answer. The model must be relatively scarce I would think. Great to have something different from the Napoleonic Wars era.
My Regards,
Norman.

Here are copies of Rüdiger Franz, Preußisch-deutsche Seitengewehre 1807-1945 with the Prussian "Hirschfaenger" produced in the years 1786/1796.

Thanks for the top information, that's exactly the model!
