Look for the 10in blades, if you see one that looks like it's 6.5 inches then it's a Korean war rework. I'll take a some pics of my Korean war cutdown to show you.

Allright thanks any markings that i should look for on the ww2 ones??

I'm not sure as to markings, but others can help you out on those. But look for a flaming bomb and a date such as 1943, that's all I know

Heres the pics, they aren't the best but that's what the post war reworks are gonna look like, there are some that don't have a muzzle ring. Those are Korean war era. Same blade stile on those

Allright Thanks For the pictures!!
