The bayonet is brass-hilted with a spring steel latching arrangement on the right side. The crossguard is iron (steel) and has a screw-type tightening arrangement on the muzzle-ring. The lower quillon is a hooked "blade-breaker" type. The blade is steel, single-edged, fullered (both sides), with a re-curved or "yataghan-shape." The blade is marked on the back-edge (opposite the cutting edge) with the arsenal, month, and year of manufacture; this is done in engraved cursive fashion and reads, "Mre d' Armes de Chat 9okt1874"
This model was designed to fit on the French Model 1866 Chassepot Rifled Infantry Musket and was manufactured from 1866 to about 1874 and was replaced by the French Model 1874 "Gras" Bayonet.
