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 goes in the pouch?" Another two or three asked, "What's the difference between a military and a commercial M9." Of course the ever popular, "What gun does this go to?"
I sold one to a man who just wanted one for his bayonet collection and another to an ex-GI who told me that when he was in Iraq, he "used the heck out of his."
So, the bottom line is I thing PWCOSOL is right about new collectors coming into the mix as well as ex-GIs who were issued this bayonet and now want a reminder of their service experience.
