Some of IMA's stuff is good and some not so good. You would have to order and see for your self. I doubt their copies would really fool any of us with hands on experience. We would be suspicious for sure.

I have one of these I.M.A Copy Bayonets as a 'Space Filler' until I can afford a Genuine example. One thing that stands out is the fact that if you turn the blade on it's side & look down the Fullers (Blood Grooves to give it the incorrect term!) It is VERY apparant that these Fullers have NOT been machine made. They have been hand made. They are irregular in form & wavy, UNLKE a machine made example which would be completely straight. Also, they have the later modifictaion of the cleaning hole in the pommel. Which the originals did not. Other than that, the quaility is not bad for a wall hanging 'space filler'!
