Here's my hunting knife, it was a gift from a friend that makes knives. The others are ones that my sons inherited from their grandfather.

Hstout, in case you haven't IDed the bayonets they are (L to R):
British No. 5 MkII, American M1917, Czech VZ24 modified or made by the Germans for their use in WWII, German G3, and four variations of the Japanese Arisaka bayonet including a nice 'last-ditch' (third from right).
Don't let your boys get bit by the bayonet collecting bug, put 'em all in a box and send them to me...

Here are some of my bayonets. I know the two at the top are not bayonets but they were in the picture. The little one is a pilot's survival knife and the other one is a "junk" frost Bowie.
From left to right:

British 303
M1 Garand or 1903
VZ-24
M1 Garand
M-16
M-16
M1 Carbine
M14

They should be laying down so the screw caps don't dry out.

A Gladius! Okay B27, I'm jealous. I should have bought one before the prices jumped.

Now I'm going to have to rummage around to gather up my collection and take pictures.

Have the prices jumped? Cause I didn't know that......still pretty reasonable....

www.museumreplicas.com

Well, now I look and they want close to $200 for the gladius I paid $110 for.
If that increase stretches across the whole product line they have indeed jumped.

My problem is that I have to pass right by this place on my way to my gun club!

Us should oughta paint our faces blue and storm in there and demand......ummmm......demand.........SOMETHING!...dang right!....We demand something!

Wow, that is low! The last one I saw was at the Medieval Times shop (Buena Park CA), and wanted a couple of hundred dollars about 10 years ago. It wasn't an arena sword, it was one of the fancy ones. they want upwards of $400 now! (with scabbard).

Okay, these are my Hibbins. I drug them out and snapped this today. Too much to drag out my military stuff (and the swords are up high in a display case). Same with my martial arts stuff (I used to do that).

B27, the cat pic is not mine, but looks almost exactly like her (my green eyed monster)
