USMC OKC 3S on Tac Tech
 

Although this doesn't relate directly to the M9, a new series called Tac Tech has just aired. I can't recall if it was on The Military Channel, or one of the others. In any event, in this first thirty minute episode, one of the featured subjects was how the OKC 3S bayonet was produced, from die-stamped blade blank to completed bayonet. I am sure there are many parallels regarding how an M9 would also be produced. Strangely no mention was made of the scabbard, but if you have the opportunity to see this program I am sure you will find it interesting...
