Hi Ken,

Not a problem. The two photos I posted to the Jouster forum comprise about 1/3 of my M9 collection. I just hit 200 pieces the other day.

Had some free time today and was puttering around in my bayonet room. Dug through and started sorting out some of my M9s that don't fit in my flat files and have been stored in boxes. While I had them out I figured I'd spead them out on the floor and take

Apparently this plaque was presented to a USMC officer. The construction of it is similar to those made by Phrobis. It is equipped with an all black Phrobis Int'l M9. These bayonets were made by Marto in limited numbers, about 40.

This was the first plaque made by Phrobis III. It hung on the wall of Mickey Finn's garage workshop until I got it from him two years ago. The bayonet is an original Phrobis III XM9.

This is one of the plaques made up by Phrobis for the Chevron bayonet. The bayonet on this plaque is a chevron with number 102 engraved on the right ricasso.
