This is a genuine USMC Buck + M9 Bayonet with Scabbard. This is one of the 5000 units made for the Marine Corps in 1991. Phrobis style bayonet with a few modifications made by Buck when producing this for the Marines. Issued condition. Complete with all the correct parts. Blade edge has a few tiny chips, some very light honing, scabbard wear, but is in nice condition considering it was used and abused. Tip looks good. False edge has wire cut marks. Stone is missing. Made in USA
This bayonet was sold years ago, but serves as a buyers guide for what the USMC Buck is supposed to be.
