Picked these up about a year ago for what I thought were fair prices. Was wondering what you guys would say they are worth?

I think it is only the pictures it looks like high gloss bluing.

Also took a few pics with the oil cleaned off in the sun.

Possible remains of oil on blade so it looked like a paint, yes is could be reblued,when looking on crossguard and tip of blade. Left side of blade near edge has longitudal scratch there or someone proofed to sharpen it? b.r.Andy

What ever has or has not been done to the blade, please wipe that damn finger or thumb print off of the blade that you can see in the pic of the maker`s name. One of the worst things you can do is leave a finger print on any of the metal surfaces. Get some oil back on it if you have not done so already. Always wipe your bayonet off after you handle it if you are not wearing gloves.

Balancing the bayonet in one hand and camera in the other i have to grab the blade. Also I always keep it in a preservative oil that contains lanolin.
