I don't remember what the hardess of the tang is, nor do I have information on how much softer or harder they made them for the test pieces. Unfortunately, Buck did not keep much of this information, especially after they ceased production in 1997. I know a person who worked there during that time period and he told me that he would take boxes and cartons of old M9 bayonet related documents out of storage and discard them!

These are definitely not one-of-a-kind pieces, but they are not overly abundant either. I have two or three "S" marked pieces and three or four of the "H" marked ones.
