   Honestly all together it’s not a bad bayonet, it did need some work done to make it a little better but nothing crazy . When I received it it had issues with locking to the rifle, once you open the handle you can see that there’s a little arm that catches at the bottom of the rifle. What I did was took a spring out of a pen I had and put it where the arm meets the button for the bayonet release and now it catches every time I put it on and it only comes off when I push the button now. As for the blade, wasn’t too bad. I sharpened it with a knife sharpener to get a better Edge on it and also you some sandpaper to wear way that shiny black finished they had on it to make it look more worn out and now it looks pretty good. The next step is getting rid of the plastic handles and finding wooden ones to replace them

   you are not getting an authentic M1905 bayonet. This is a repro. And your expectations should reflect that. However, at this price, it is an excellent addition to your collection for a fraction of an authentic m1905.

   I have a 1903 Springfield as well as a M1 Garand. As much as I would like to spend a fortune for an original bayonet I was just looking for something that could be displayed and still look decent. Decided I was going to give this bayonet a try and I’m impressed. Is it an original? No. BUT it still looks good for a fraction of the cost. It fits the 1903 very snug with no wiggle. It fits the M1 Garand as well but with a little more wiggle. Both are secure and do not come off unless you release it like normal. Blade is coated black and can be sanded off if you prefer the metal blade look. Bayonet did come sharpened and does through some soft material(plastic clothes baskets…etc). Overall good for what you get.

   I have a model 1917 Eddystone. This won’t fit. The receiving slot is neither deep enough nor wide enough. The slot could be widened with a file and some work but I don’t see a way to mill it any deeper. You would run out of material. Still it is a reasonable knife for the price.

   While this repro does look nice on the end of the gun and cones in sharp, it unfortunately does not fulfill the role of bayonet very well. After only a few shots today at the range while mounted to my springfield 1903, it decided to launch itself off of the rifle and break irreparably in dramatic fashion. The locking mechanism on this needs to be more solid in order for it to function correctly.

   I don’t own a garand, so I haven’t tried it for fit, but it appears to have legitimate dimensional qualities. While I have not done “laboratory tests” on it, it is indeed long and apparently of standard thickness, and it has a feel very much like authentic bayonets that I have known from the WWII era. One thing that I am always unsure about in purchasing an unfamiliar edged implement is the quality of the steel. This one said, “high carbon steel,” and that seemed hopeful. My conclusion is that the steel is in fact quite satisfactory. I like the steel in a Ka-Bar knife that I recently purchased somewhat better, but that is chrome-vanadium, very tough and sharp. This one appears to be high carbon steel as stated, and it seems the right hardness for a bayonet, fairly easy to sharpen well but not seeming brittle enough to chip easily. I tested it for hardness against an inexpensive stainless steel pocket knife that I carry, and while the knife will not scratch this bayonet, the bayonet, when sharpened, can cut thin shavings off of the pocket knife. I think it will do just fine.

   This item was defective upon arrival . The bayonet is stuck in the scabbard . The bayonet lug hook is not connected and it’s just a long cold rolled steel knife . 40 bucks was a waste on this item that was packed and shipped without checking . Package was in great shape not damaged in shipping it’s just defective and githubja.com doesn’t have a option for thay or help contacting the seller … additional. I had to disassemble the grip and remove internal parts. Reassemble and is now working like advertised. I am changing review to 5 star. Is solid tight piece . Will gladly use on my original springfield.

   This bayonet snapped onto the mount of my M1 rifle without any trouble at all. It fits as securely as my surplus USGI M4, M6, and M7 fit on my M1 Carbine, Polytech M14 clone, and AR15, respectively. It isn’t proper carbon steel but I don’t plan to use it for its designed purpose. It’s just there to look good and I didn’t have to pay the stupid money an uncut USGI M1905 bayonet commands.

   Besides, if I were to somehow (?) end up using it to defend myself, I doubt the bad guy is going to laugh at it because it is likely to break off in his rib cage or pelvis.

   As far as the reviews mentioning fitment problems, it is possible that rifles made by contract manufacturers (Winchester, International Harvester, Harrington & Richardson) or those with aftermarket gas tubes might have bayonet lugs that are slightly out of specification and were never fixed by armorers. My rifle is from 1942 production at Springfield Armory.
