Just another of the many postwar additions of different grip insignia to an original bayonet. As P.T. Barnum once said, "A fool and his money are soon parted."

In my opinion, the individual who is selling the bayonet SHOULD have checked his SPELLING....I would have!
Poor spelling is a big turn off for me!
