Looks like a Dahlgren Model 1861 for the Plymouth / Whitneyville rifle also known as Dahlgren Bowie Bayonet, not sure if it's real though as these has been reproduced!...

It is a reproduction from the 80s. BILL

It is a cool bayonet just too bad it is a repro.

At first glance, I thought the stamps looked weak and the brass had that New look.
Great to have the knowledgeable membership, who can definitively answer these quires.
I'm always learning something around here.
