    Description

    This is a new reproduction from WHAT PRICE GLORY of the combination entrenching tool  adopted in 1873 for use with the .45-70 Springfield rifle.  It includes a leather covered metal sheath and a wooden handle insert.
    NOTE:  The locking cam on the bayonet is stiff when new and may require the use of tools to turn initially.  It will loosen up quickly with use.
    NOTE:  The wooden handle insert was checked for fit at the factory using an original trowel bayonet.  However, we have found there are minor differences in original bayonets, so some minor fitting may be necessary.  This may involve sanding the wood or a few passes with a file on the metal stud.
    I will combine shipping on multiple purchases.  Wait for an adjusted invoice before sending payment.
