This replica bayonet and scabbard was made by Renowned Met Fencing master Oscar F. Kolombatavich. Oscar was the fencing master for several motion pictures ( Oscar F. Kolombatovich - IMDb ). Born in Split, Yugoslavia in 1919, a member of the Royal family, they were run out of Yugoslavia and fled to Italy and subsequently to the USA. Fluent in Italian, Spanish, Croatian and Serbian, he subsequently was recruited by the OSS to serve in Italy.

After returning to Madrid, Spain, he founded a sword making operation in Toledo. Pavarotti was his most famous of all customers and would only use Oscar's swords in his performances. I met and became close friends with Oscar while serving as the USMC Attaché in the 1990's in Madrid. Oscar Passed away in 2002.

This a replica revolutionary war era plug bayonet with scabbard. I do not know which, if any, it replicates. It is closest in style to a 1700 English military plug.

Blade is 8.5" long and 14.5" OAL
