Same opinion about US M1917 bayonet made by Winchester for M1917 rifle version of P14 in US .30-06 caliber, second one could be french Chassepot M1866 when writing on spine of blade, when not recess on slot on handle spine, it could be a export for Remington M1867 rifle.br.Andy

Thanks for the help guys. Roughly what is the W bayonet worth? Also, I don't think the other one is a chasepot, but I will look at the spine again.

You should add a picture of the spine of handle, mainly the back part where is recess and rifle slot visible. The Winchester M1917 are harder to find as normal Remington one, anyway the prices are different in various countries, 100-200USD complet with scabbard. b.r.Andy

Here is a picture of it with a French Chaspot next to it. They are similar, but different.

Looks like a gras bayonet. Should have some writing identifying arsenal along the spine of the blade. Made in 1870s to begin with I think.
