    M 1905 bayonet value

    At a local antique store I have found a M 1905 bayonet. It is marked 1912 and SA. There is no scabbard and it is in what I would call "fair to good" condition. It has been lightly sharpened and the wood grips are is very nice shape. The blade is not bent at all and all of the wear is on the blade, handle/grip area is in great shape. Condition wise it looks like the one in this pic that I found:


    What would be the approx. value of this bayonet (again, no scabbard)
    Thanks for the input.

    I'd say if you can get it for $50 to $150 go for it.

      About right. If it's like in the photo, it was parked in WWI. Originally they had bright and shiny blades and the handle, hilt, and first 1/4" of the blade blued.
