 Brown Bess Boat Hook

OA 222mm Bl 100mm Sl 100mm Mrd 23mm Sm 50.5mm Bw 26.5mm

 

 

This interesting Brown Bess bayonet came from Portugal,  presumably lost during the peninsular campaigns.  It has apparently been modified into a boat hook.  It will still fit a Brown Bess musket,  however it is more likely to have been put on the end of a pole.
