    A couple of unmarked dress bayonets.

    Looking for opinions if these look correct. Short one measures 12 and 1/2" overall with a 7 5/8" blade. Long measures 14 5/8" overall with a 9 3/4" blade. The grips on the longer bayonet don't fit quite right and it generally seems to be of lesser quality so I'm a little skeptical of that one myself. I've been out of the market for a while so recent values would also help. Thanks

    Hmmm

    Well the short one looks perfectly fine. The longer one has several "issues" being the worse fit of the grips, the space between the blade and the hilt of the bayonet. Further it's missing the leather plug. I am not saying it's not legitimate, but I would not want it myself. As to the price, my guesstimate would be as follows:

    Short: 100 USD
    Long: 80 USD

        All that doesn´t bother me ! ...

        The frog stud´s are telling me, the maker is W.K.C.
        The "short" one show´s the, so called, "carbine"-blade.

        Nice bayo´s !

          Yup

          Reibert, you are right, maybe I am too picky :-) That said, I also noticed the studs, which are identical to my WKC marked bayos. Very good observation there!
