I have in my collection a bright fullered first contract style blade blank that is marked Lan-Cay. I do not believe that these are US military contract blades. As posted elsewhere, LanCay didn't change their name until AFTER they were producing their second contract run of M9s. All US military contract blades from that point forward had a black oxide finish. LanCay had depleted their stock of early style blades (with the notch in front of the muzzle ring) prior to completion of their first contract and finished out the contract with the later style blades. More that likely these blades we're discussing were blanks that did not meet specifications for the first contract and were later stamped and used for commercial sales.
