1869 Cadet bayonet

A few weeks ago I found an 1869 cadet bayonet on J&J Militaria. It was pricey but figured I'd never see another so went ahead and purchased it. Turned out to be a really nice bayonet.

That's one I don't have. Have two 69 Cadets, but no bayonet.

I would think that you would have one Dick. I hear they are scarce or would they be considered rare? I’ll be watching for a scabbard now if they are even around??
I posted a few pics of the 84 rod bayonet, wondering if you seen them and if so what do you think about the rear sight?
