Could I get any opinions \ values on the below bayonet for sale locally. Want to know if it is real & what a good price would be. Appreciate any input. Thanks

Although there are all kinds of reproductions out there now, this one does not have any of the usual red flags showing. Without handling it I will not say for sure, but it looks good. I can tell for almost positive if I can see the left side of the hilt without the grips on, and if there are any markings inside the grips. Prices are all over the place on these on eBay and at the shows, but looks nice and if real (and it looks pretty good to me) it would be in the range of $125 to as much as $150 and in the right place might bring more. I have seen them sell higher, but they are still fairly common so I wouldn't go overboard.

American Fork and Hoe, got one as Surplus out of Ft. Eustis for 90 bucks a few years ago, looks dead on the same

It sure looks to be 100% US GI, but the finish bothers me some. Reparked?
