Trying to ID country of manufacture of this AKM type 1 bayonet. No markings anywhere that I can find. Strange handle composition of mixed brown colors! Anyone able to ID.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Looks Romanian at first glance to me, I expect the handle is normal but aged/worn, that looks like phenolic resin and the fibers used show more easily when the surface is aged and worn. Any pics (or any markings) on the scabbard?

Pics of scabbard. Also, no markings to be seen on scabbard.
