Socket Bayonets were made with a socket that fitted over the barrel of the musket and had a slot which slid past the fore sight. The blade was offset to one side allowing the soldier to load the musket. Our high quality Brown Bess Bayonet is a replica of the Brown Bess Bayonet that was also used during the American Revolutionary War.
