Re: LONG Saw-Back Bayonet Donation
Great bayonet! Value wise, like I said earlier, probably $150.00
I wish things like this were allowed to be shown in school. This year, we were studying the Civil War, and my teacher asked me to bring in my musket ball collection. I agreed, only if the Principal said it was OK. My teacher asks, and my principal replies by saying they are explosives, and is against school code! Pretty ridiculous, if you ask me.
I wish I had a teacher like you. Would be pretty sweet.

Re: LONG Saw-Back Bayonet Donation
The german saw back butcher bayonet was considered to be against the rules of war and there are stories that soldiers captured with these faced very harsh treatment, therefore many had the saw back removed, but to be honest the damn thing was so long it could go right through a man anyway and cause massive internal damage

BB, I think your head teacher needs to go back to school, hes pretty ignorant regarding the types of bullets used during the Civil war, if he thinks that musket balls are explosives take in some large ball bearings and ask him if they are also considered as explosives, see what he says

Thanks for the compliment! I had no idea you were so young!
I agree with you 100%. There are so many neat ideas I have that are not possible because of school rules that I would consider ridiculous. Our school even blocks teachers from using youtube in class. I've argued that youtube has plenty of educational and current event videos, but my argument has falled upon deaf ears.
It's unfortunate that the majority of students are NOT like you. I'm not far removed from high school... but MY GOD! so many individuals in this current generation just don't give a crap! Every day seems like a battle for their attention... "Mr. T vs. students' cell phones and ipods." As such, I try my best to be a little bit of an entertainer. I try to use humor. I try to shock my students with crazy stories and facts... I try to use classroom discussion, debates, skits, group projects, hands on activities, etc.

Found this similar bayonet... I'm hoping your appraisal was a little low

Thanks for the response!
Hmm... well, that website certainly brought my thoughts back down to earth a little. However, he does not have one there for sale that closely resembles my bayonet, so I'm still holding out some hope that mine is a gem!
He has a pay-per-use reference section, but I hesitate to subscribe considering that I do not plan on collecting bayonets... :/
