Japanese Bayonet

[zephyr4]

Picked this bayonet up last week is it real scabbard has nearly all its paint and the blade is blued.

Thanks for any help z4

Greetings Z4,

Unfortunately, the posted bayonet is a post-war reproduction (likely, under five years old). Scabbard is noticeably incorrect to an original's and is similar in construction/shape of the scabbard offered with this REPRO AH3589 - Arisaka Type 30 Bayonet - $57.95

Best,

V/r Lance

Thanks for the reply.
I thought it was a copy only paid a few £'s so not over bothered.
