I see no reason to think the blade was put with the handle later. It certainly appears to be untouched peening. The age of the blade and the hilt matchup nicely with other known examples. While I can't completely rule out a composite piece. I see no reason to think this is.
For Richard G- Yes, Hannover or Brunswick were obviously my first thoughts with their ties to George. But as I have stated there is a Hessian connection to George as well. The Hessian museum bayonet is attached. Not very good images, I'm afraid. |
