Original US WW2 M1 Bayonet Dated 1942 with Scabbard

An authentic United States military M1 bayonet from World War II. The bayonet features a parkerized steel blade that was factory-modified to a 10-inch length, black ribbed plastic grips, and a steel guard with muzzle ring. It is paired with its olive drab fiberglass scabbard. Manufactured in 1942 by Union Fork & Hoe (UFH), this bayonet was originally produced as a 16-inch M1905 bayonet and later cut down to 10 inches in 1943 to meet the new infantry standards for the M1 Garand rifle. The blade ricasso is stamped with the manufacturer initials "U.F.H.," the US ordnance bomb logo, and the date "1942." The plastic grips are in excellent condition, and the fiberglass scabbard features the steel US collar.
