Although some bladed weapons were made by American swordsmiths, most weapons of this type came from European sources; however the hilts were often made in the Colonies. The blade and the bayonet were considered the ultimate weapons in warfare of this period, since the flintlock musket did not have a high degree of accuracy or reliability. Historical and informative.
