And, for a REALLY cheap.rendition,
They offer, in the Special Purpose line, for about $40-$50 rather than $75-$100, the exact same blade with 100% kraton guard/handle/pommel retained by a ferrule installed through tang, with a really cheap ugly sheath.
Given the difference on grind/edging between the issue bayonet and this blade, would not be suprised if bargain basement had the issue treatment, but, no real idea, having not laid eyes on one. The more expensive version has everything needed for a stacked leather conversion aside from ordered leather washers and a shop with thin and thick grinder wheels.
