I bought this at an estate auction thinking it was a Japanese Arisaka bayonet. I have 2 Arisaka rifles, and one bayonet, so I was hoping this would fit the other rifle. BUT...it is odd. There is no mark on the blade. The blade is thinner than my other bayo. There is a number and Japanese characters stamped into the hilt? part where it attaches to the gun. It will NOT fit on the Arisaka attaching piece on the gun...see picture of back of both bayonets. The one on the left is my other one. The one on the right is this new one---close, but different sizes. ANY ideas what rifle this will fit?? The blade is 14 1/2" long with an overall length of 19". Thanks!
