What has the world come to.....
I was browsing e-bay and I saw these. I thought they looked funny, so I clicked on the link. These have to be the worst quality reproduction bayonets I have seen. They look like an arisaka, franch gras, chassepot, and an ersatz bayonet. Just horrible..
5 PCS WWII BAYONET SWORD OF SEVERAL COUNTRIES -567 - eBay (item 300436067355 end time Oct-08-10 02:50:27 PDT)
EDIT: It is funny that they use phillips head screws in the grips.

Re: What has the world come to.....
I'm no expert,but they look pretty good even if they are repro's. Heck,just look at some of the prices for just one repro. $89 aint so bad for some wall hangers.

Ha, the inscription on the "French Gras" looks like a 3rd grader wrote it....

Re: What has the world come to.....
And, who ever aged them, if they are repro's, did a darned good job of it.

Re: What has the world come to.....
At least the vendor is not claiming them as genuine and actually does state that they are reproduction. Personally I think that whoever has made them has made a good job on approprately distressing them for age, wear and tear etc.

It must cost a relative fortune to produce these fakes! Who is making money??

They are not fakes. They are just a bunch of beat up junk bayonets.
