Here is something else my uncle picked up while over in Europe. It is a US bayonet measuring 21" overall and the blade length is 16". Below are some pics of it. What would the worth be in its present condition. What rifle would of this been used on? Any comments are appreciated.

You can find scabbard for these though, I would seek one out. it would add 1/2 the value back ($150) and only cost your $75-100
