The "x" on the 1953 and repro versions are different, but off the top of my head not sure, believe it's width. I own 2xWW2, 1953, and a repro of the Camillus M4's, it helps when you can compare "in...

I'm with Brian Q! The M's on the original 1953 contract Camillus M4's, the center does not come down to the bottom of the letter. The originals have stake marks in the tang, and all the metal is a...

Hey Gang! You can find pages of UK blades at "worldwar2weapons.net" just clickinto the UK section, and scroll down to the edged weapons section. SKIP

tcarn70-Let's start here. Is the blade blue? Does the handle have red spacers in front of the guard? Or is the blade parkerized(gray)? Does the handle have spacers, red, or black? SKIP

WW2 era I believe 1944, because it's guard marked. SKIP

Glock23dude-I saw this request on the other site. It's not that easy. Mark 2's have been in production since 1942. Of the ones you want prices on Camillus produced them from 42' until they shut down...

Hey Gang! Bruce Canfield's book" US Infantry Weapons of WW2 " has a pic on page 25 of troops from the 194th Glider Regt shaving their heads w/ the new M4 Bayonet-Knives, just prior to the drop across...

It is unique, and you have seen others. Never have run across one anywhere, live or print. SKIP

JimF4M1s-Where did you get the leather scabbard? Is it US marked (ie RIA)? Have never seen one before, and don't recall referenced anywhere. Really neat! SKIP

Porterkids- Thanks, didn't know the Finns produced a folder. I have a Finnish M62 Bayonet, very different. no guard, plastic handle, and gray-green leather sheath. Have to see if I can find a photo...

Italian Model 1938 is the only folding bayonets I've ever seen. SKIP

GregV- I've been trying to get my hands on an ACC & Aerial for years. I have a collector friend that has a mint original that is actually a very beautiful M4. Tried trading a Mint Camillus M3, guard...

JIMF4M1s- That has to be a very early/ maybe prototype M4. Have never seen one in that condition. Leather handle, blued blade, WOW! Mine was probably a 1950's conversion done in Japan. I have the...

JIMF4M1's-Come to think of it, I've never seen an aluminum handled M4 at all. Read about them, can't even recall seeing any good pics. Seen a few wood handled, but my priorities right now are to get...

aris-It looks like a good one. If you check "US Military Knives & Bayonets" Gary Cunningham's column, section 23 has all the correct markings. It was probably refinished, and has a Utica (UC),...

GreV- Looks alright to me. I wouldn't get bent out of shape over the grind in the top edge of the blade. Utica M3's had substantially different grinds between the early blade , and late guard marked....

Tom-Sounds like a French MAS1949/56 bayonet. Could be wrong, but I'd check out French Bayonets and rifles for a start. Good Luck! SKIP

Pattern 14- For whatever it's worth the bayonets for the Krag, M1903, and M1 are all interchangeable. SKIP

BAC- I've seen one actual Bowie Bayonet in my life. Someone ground down the blade. Looks real to me. But. I don't get why someone would replace the grips w/a plastic M1 set.Unless they were flat out...

Aaronlet- I believe you have a 3rd Model British Commando knife. They were made late war and continued post war. Is that a "3" I see on the handle above the guard. I think that indicates the model...

Gerry- I bought book III in 1981, still love it. Never got book IV. But, did buy the Best of US Military Knives by Cole. I love it. It's a compilation of III & IV. I'm sure others may have different...

Howard- Which version went for $227? Spike, cruciform, or Bowie blade. It is crazy. SKIP

Hey Guys! By some strange coincidence "Northridge International" is also in Calabasas Ca. It could be them. They sell on ebay a lot, but usually they put their logo in. Just a thought. SKIP

Myles- Poyer & Reisch have it at 1883. SKIP

Gerry-I think what they mean is the pommel has a protective coating of the powdered metal. There are still plenty of the originals around at a good price if you keep an eye out. As far as driving a...
