Interesting description. I guess these were unmarked. Rivets don't look lined up.

OK, were bayonets made specifically for the Navy Special Rifles?
They were yes. Whether this actually is one, I don't know. it looks like a training bayonet to me due to the lack of markings but the navy bayonets were not marked. But did they take a training bayonet and grind the blade down to make it look like one? The rivets/screws don't look right to me.
The cross piece has the appearance of looking as if it may have been laser cut. No, laser cutting machines didn't exist in WW2.
