Forgive me if this is not the correct section. Mods feel free to move if needed. My son was recently given this bayonet. I can't seem to ID it. I was wondering of anyone here can tell me what he has? I cant say I ever saw a proof like that before. Thanks in advance for any leads.
It looks like a Brazilian 1908 but I don't recognize the ricasso mark. You don't give us much to work with. You don't show the full bayo out of the scabbard and don't show the frog hook.
You might also want to post over to the MILITARY SWORDS AND BAYONETS board.
The marking on the blade doesn't seem to conform to the 1908 Brazilian contract but it has been a while since I owned one. Also, I do believe the metal on the scabbard is suppose to be brass if it is a 1908 contract.
Ahh good point, I wasn't thinking about the refurbished ones.
