Chris and Pwcosol,
what if the "USMC 038" inscription in my bayonet was just a custom logo?
I'm thinking about a USMC association who could have bought a small quantity of these commemoratives for the association members and asked to have the blade numbered.
This was an available option (priced at $ 19), according to the ad shown above.
