Original M1 Garand Bayonet, Grade 2

The bluing has that honest wear you want from a real surplus piece, and the locking lug engages with a solid snap. Parked it next to my other Garand gear and it fits right in. For the price, this Grade 2 is a fair deal if you're not chasing a mint example.

The serial number stamping is crisp and the parkerized finish has that honest field-worn character you want from a surplus piece. Mine arrived with a solid lockup on the lug and no wobble when mounted. Exactly what I was after for my collection.

The bluing is solid for a Grade 2, and the wood grips have a nice honest wear that tells a story. Unboxed it and the metal feels dense and well-balanced, exactly what I wanted for my collection.
