Looks like a Bunswick P1837 Sword Bayonet.

Here's a P1837 Brunswick for comparison, see link for a better one and then a grungy one in the picture below from the same site.

Thank you ffuries

You're welcomed! Bayonets seem to be some of the only things I can nail around here......

An additional note for you. The term Sword Bayonet refers to early bayonets that could be used as a sword and mounted to the rifle as a bayonet. So they were a sword and bayonet or an early multi-tool
