Hello,
at the moment there is one of these bayonets (US Army version) for sale on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-US-Army-Ont...QQcmdZViewItem
An example of an Ontario commemorative for the USMC is shown in the following tread in this forum
http://www.quarterbore.net/forums/showthread.php?t=34
My question is: until now the Ontario commemoratives I saw for sale on ebay were ALL numbered on the blade "1 of 500" ..I never saw a blade with written on it "2 of 500" or "150 of 500".
So, are they really a "limited edition"?
I honestly can't understand if the "1 of 500" logo on the blades means that:
a) the bayonet is the number # 1 (so there should be a number # 2, 3....of a total of 500 made, or
b) the bayonet is one (not numbered) of a total of 500 made --> all the bayonets have the same marking "1 of 500"?
Found this a little bit confusing....
