Thanks for the heads-up John. There is always someone out there with a new trick up their sleeve.

Thanks John for link, the scabbards were matched up or in missmatched condition?

Good information makes you wonder what's next Faking combat bayonets to look late war! evidently timothy

Mismatched scabbards.

Tim it is coming i am certain...we now have fake bayonets, fake frogs, fake riveted are hard to do and getting the phosphate the right color isnt easy. The fakers have some knowledge.
