I did repair/refurbish a No5 bayonet a while ago and the crosspiece and pommel are both pinned in placed and then the pins peened over.

I think that one of the reasons some dealers may describe broken or incomplete bayonets as "fighting knives" is an excuse to ask more for them.
It didn't seem long ago that you could get a good 1907 bayonet and scabbard for £75.Information
