1996 Commercial Buck 188 M9 Bayonet - Black Blade

[Quarterbore]

I am still trying to build a collection of photos of as many M9s as possible and here is a very nice example of a 1996 Commercial Buck M9 Bayonet...

Here is a link to the auction (http://www.qksrv.net/click-1113488-5463217?loc=http%3A//cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26item%3D6515637046)

Here is the description:

Quote:US M9 Buck Bayonet. Left side of ricasso marked "BUCK 188 ) U.S.A." Bayonet is in excellent condition with light scabbard rub. Blade retains full tip and shows no signs of sharpening or being used to cut wire. Comes with a correct Buck Scabbard with Buck cutter plate and warning decal. Sharpening stone intact and untouched. Over all a very excellent example of a Circa 1996 Commercial M9 Bayonet.

I would like to thank Eric, the seller of this knife, for allowing me to use his images on the website!

Following are some photos of this knife from the auction:
