    Default Model and value of 2 bayonets?

    Working on cleaning up and organizing some of my accessories and possibly looking to sell 2 bayonets, but unsure of what they fit and value. One is definitely US and I think for a Garand possibly. Has the flaming bomb and 'AFH' stamp, but no sheath/scabbard. Black plastic handle, parkerized and looks like new with just the slightest shine coming through finish by the fuller. Also would it be worth buying a sheath, or sell as is if I go that route?

    Second is off a Mauser I think, but it's been close to 20 years since I got it and not even sure on that, much less which model/country/caliber. Condition is fairly rough...some nicks and scratches in blade, patina, wood is soft. TIA for any insights, RR

    You might have your pics numbered wrong but your parked AFH is for the Garand. It was a WWII made 10 inch model (not cut down from 16 inches). I believe it is freshly reparked.

    The other I'm not so sure of. First guess is Turkish.

    If you are interested post some pics here. Lots of experts that know a lot more than I do.

    Thanks, I reordered them now. Ok thanks, I was curious as to the Parkerizing being original vs redone myself, and will check out gunboards
