M1915 bolo bayonet

It looked real so I bought it. I just wish it had a scabbard.

Culpepper- That is so cool! Do you have any provenance or history? Supposedly only about 6000 made and most went to the Phillipines. Is the blade beveled on one side and flat on the other, like other US Bolos? Just curious. THX SKIP

Sorry, no story for it. I saw it from over here in Afghanistan a week or so ago and had to ponder getting it. I will not be able to lay hands on it until this coming Thanksgiving.

The site had another M1915 a couple of years ago with a scabbard and better shape but I could not get it because it was sold by the time I stumbled onto it.

I did manage to pick up a M1902 bolo bayonet (1902) from the same gentleman. It has a very high cool factor.
