Tell us about the fifth one from the left. It's a Remington without the clean out hole. Is it a British P-13 that has the marks crossed out?

Marv,

ONTARIO ??

 

I think he meant Ontario, Canada. Ontario Knife never made the M1917 bayonet. There were a total of four contractors: WWI was Remington and Winchester. Post-war contractors were GenCut (General Cutlery of Fremont, Ohio) and Canadian Arsenals Ltd (formerly the Long Branch arsenal in Ontario, Canada.)
