    Since the the machete is "US" marked, it is not a stretch to say that it's provenance is from the Vietnam War era. Ontario Knife also had a contract for M1917 bayonets for the US military shotguns during that period.

    Ours were marked exactly as this one is. They're still in use. Maybe it is and maybe it isn't.
