Thanks for the info. I'll delve into it.

The wood on mine looks very much like the one in the upper photo, while the scabbard looks like the lower one. My photo of the wood on mine looks better than it is, although it's still in pretty good shape.

After looking at this info, and a lot more on the internet, I think it's the real deal. Here are some more pics, albeit of poor quality. The first shows the barely visible crown . The second and third are the anchor over an E with EJ to the left and AB to the right. This is the mfrs mark. The 4th is the crown on the tip of the scabbard. The 5th is just a better look at the wood.

Man, I messed that up.

After the better pictures of your Bayo, I think it's the real deal just in excellent shape.

 

[ronny]

In that info your relayed, some of the info on the older bayonets was really interesting. They went into as much detail making the bayonets as the firearms they related to. Craftsmen.

You guys just reminded me I have a later M96 bayonet and scabbard just collecting dust in a box. I should put it up for sale.
