SKIPH Posted May 31, 2020 Share #1 Posted May 31, 2020 Hey Gang! Just came across this M4, that all of missed. Ebay item # 402278118045. It's a "KA-BAR" stamped M4, with at this time listed at $79. Be the first one on the web page to own this one. If someone could post the ad it would be appreciated. You've got to see this rare beauty. I do not know the seller. New collectors keep studying.

sactroop Posted May 31, 2020 Share #5 Posted May 31, 2020 A "frankenbayonet" matched to a "frankensheath". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKIPH Posted May 31, 2020 Author Share #6 Posted May 31, 2020 WOW! Up to $91, and 11 bids. Obviously some folks don't realize that "Ka Bar did not produce M4 bayonets. New collectors study! Curious to see where this goes. SKIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKIPH Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share #7 Posted June 2, 2020 Up to $144.48. Getting real curious to see where this fake goes. SKIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misfit 45 Posted June 2, 2020 Share #8 Posted June 2, 2020 This one has the look of a Kiffie or equivalent M4. There's a little too much ricasso to be US issue, but who wouldn't want a Ka-bar? Marv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheeltim Posted June 2, 2020 Share #9 Posted June 2, 2020 Plus, you get an M8A1 scabbard with "M1 .30 Cal" officially engraved on the back of throat! 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olivedrab1970 Posted June 2, 2020 Share #10 Posted June 2, 2020 What??? That is a prototype and 1 of a kind! That will be the best bayonet ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKIPH Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share #11 Posted June 3, 2020 Marv- I have to agree with you on the M4 being of "Kiffie" origin. Been pondering that for days. The big clue for me was the false edge. The 90* cut is typical of the "Kiffies" as I recall. Noticed the bids are up to $155.00. SKIP Up to $203.00 ends tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKIPH Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share #12 Posted June 6, 2020 Someone is gonna learn a hard lesson, the fake KA-Bar M4 just went for $231. SKIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misfit 45 Posted June 6, 2020 Share #13 Posted June 6, 2020 $231.50 to be exact. Did we miss something here? I'm stunned! Marv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKIPH Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share #14 Posted June 6, 2020 I can't recall Ka-Bar ever producing M4s, but evidently someone thought they did. I'm curious to see how long it takes to be back for sale on ebay. SKIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS Posted June 6, 2020 Share #15 Posted June 6, 2020 I wonder who buys this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt14k Posted June 6, 2020 Share #16 Posted June 6, 2020 People are lazy. 5 min Google search would have saved a $200+ mistake. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt14k Posted July 7, 2020 Share #17 Posted July 7, 2020 Seems some people dug up the Sarco commissioned Mk2 Bayonets and are selling them as experimental. At least one poor sucker is about to get taken for almost $200. Other sellers are really greedy asking $300 buy it now.
