M9 bayonet SIG marking

[ColinG]

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 late model, commercial M9s manufactured by BUCK why would they need to add PHROBIS III to it as well as the SIG mark? And if they did what would they have had to do to acquire the right to stamp the PHROBIS mark on the blade? It would seem much less cheaper and easier to simply purchase a batch of BUCK commercial M9s and stamp their own logo or have BUCK supply a batch with the additional SIG markings. It just all doesn't seem right, IMO.
