USMC Commemorative Phrobis International

[Carlo]

A new entry in my collection!





























Does anyone have more information about this (only commercial) bayonet?
Looking at the pictures in this topic

tha walnut case manufacture seems almost (or exactly) the same, so I suspect that this USMC commemorative was commissioned by Frankiln Mint.
I'm quite sure I never saw reference of this bayonet before, in any of the books I have.
Now wish me luck: this evening will have to start a real fight with my girlfriend (and soon wife), to persuade her to let me display this beauty in the living room.....
