What tells you that this is a repro? The 1872 Applicante Bayonet is indeed rare. If you don't want to share on GDC then I would appreciate a PM. The story that goes with this is quite unbelievable (literally). Thanks Gents.

For me, the biggest red flag of all is the 'no return' policy. His story of why he has such smells from a mile away.

Today it looks like it was made yesterday, but in 70 years it wont.

I must say I'm impressed by the quality of this piece. I didn't know the reproductions of this dagger type were this good. I totally agree with Landser. In time it won't look this new and all the more convincing. Thanks for posting this one!

Not trying to sound like a smart( As )but than you will just have a older one... it still is many problems ..I bought a very nice reproduction of this type made by WK&C at the 1st MAX SHOW blue gold etched blade for around $200.00 (I think).So they have been making these for years already....I posted about 3-4 years ago about these Imperial daggers being made on this forum and on another.. On the other forum I was meet with allot of negativity by some big dealer lackeys..
