The only ones I've gotten with M1 bayonets show a lot of wear. These have the marks on the back like the originals do but the color is throwing me off. For the price I paid for the three it wouldn't upset me too much. They were advertised as all original.

show the other side of the bayonets where the US flambing bomb logo is.

Also repros are normally pastic not the fiberglass weave laminate.

Do the scabbards themselves appear to have a criss-corss texture to the surface?  It's hard to make up but it appears that they do.  Original scabbard were fiberglass type weave laminate.

I put some oil on the bayos and wiped down the scabbards. Looks like they were coated in a very thin layer of flat green paint and there is the fiberglass underneath that. Thanks.
