Commercial or Mil-Issue

Hello,
I have a militaria show coming up and plan to sell a couple of my Lancay M9s that I believe are the cheaper commercial oddities rather than military issue and would like to confirm with more...

Both beautiful bayonets. I, unfortunately, do not have a M9A1 in my collection yet. Is there a reason one is marked PHROBIS III and the other PHROBIS Int'l and which would have been the earlier...

Possible!?

Sir,

When I first saw it, my thought was that it was a General Cutlery. The scabbard is dated '95 and, I believe, the original GenCuts were fitted with a 1992 dated scabbard. Also, seller states...

GenCut Sold

Gentlemen,

I see that the GenCut LANCAY sold on the Simpson Ltd. site. I would have thought that at near $1000 it would not sell - at least not this soon anyway. I bought my GenCut LANCAY about...

1994 LanCay

Sir,

I believe the letter does not quite explain the numbers. I have a Brett letter I received with my last of the first contract delivery 1994 LanCay bayonet that is 3 pages long in which he...

XM9 anyone

For those of you who want an XM9 over 29 Phrobis trials bayonet and can afford it, Simpson Ltd. out of Galesburg, IL has one for only $4,500. A General Cutlery for only $995 (I think a thousand...

Rare LanCay?

Hello SignalSoldier,

Could you please clarify or expand on what you are saying. Are you saying that there were only about 12 defective blades turned into 'Lan-Cay' marked bayonets and that they...

Yes Carlo I see that it is for the commercial market. I found a back thread by member PANCANAL dated 5-16-06 which reads: These M9 Lan-Cay U.S.A. Bayonets have blood grooves. The middle one has a...

Oh, I know what Mister Moon is trying to say - it's that he says it with such gusto. Wasn't something mentioned in past threads about these fullered Lancays marked Lan-Cay instead of LanCay. I'll...

Mister Moon -

Finally a fullered Lancay showed up on ebay. It went faiirly fast for $155 on a "buy it now". I think maybe it could have gone for more if not on "buy it now". The item number was...

At last weekend's militaria show I had six M9s. A mix of commercial and military. I only sold two at $150 each, but had a lot of lookers and questions. Three people asked, "Where is the stone that...

Yes, it is a good time to buy. On the other hand, it is a bad time to sell. I will have a table or two at the next Militaria and Knife show this February here in Michigan and, as usual, I will have...

It's the same model.
The model 92, as on the photo, is not rare.

Mister Moon,

The model 92 with the deep fuller seems to be getting hard to find these days. I don't think one has shown up on...

Buck USMC on Ebay

Does any one know if this is the highest paid for any M9 to date? I thought that because the riveted form was slightly more numerous than the threaded kind that it might go for less than $2K. My...

SOS M9s

Fred or Bill,

Aside from that one table at the SOS, what was the M9 market like at the rest of the tables? The gun and knife shows that I attend in my part of the country generally do not show...

Buck Usmc 1993

Carlo, Bill,

Would another characteristic be that the screwdrver tip of the cutter plate is shaved off? I have seen this on two other 1993 USMCs. TIA

M9 SIG markings

I think it is interesting that there was no last minute/second biddings. The bayonet reached the $580 mark fairly fast and normally when an item reaches that price, that fast you have last minute...

M9 Bayonet SIG markings

Also, if it was SIG authorized wouldn't the box that the bayonet came in indicate this somewhere on it? Too many unanswered questions to make this a safe buy.

M9 Bayonet SIG markings

Porterkids hit my reservations about this bayonet when he stated that the 1994 date of the bayonet was way beyond the contractual relationship between PHROBIS and BUCK. If SIG did acquire a batch of...

My belief is that if a bayonet, or any other militaria (1911A1s for example), is made as a collectable commerative it will probably never be worth much or as much as a military piece made exclusively...
