This is a reproduction of a hard to find experimental Vietnam era item. During the 1960's there an experimental design to turn the M7 Bayonet into a fighting knife by replacing one side of the issued grips. You would remove the factory grip screws from the bayonet and then remove the right side plastic grip panel. You would replace the right side plastic grip panel with the cast "knuckle" grip panel and then reinsert the factory screws. There is debate on the origin of the original design and questions as to if there was ever a military production trial or if they were private purchase. Examples can also be found with plastic knuckles and with aluminum knuckles. The reproduction we have here is a cast one piece aluminum knuckle panel for durability. We only have a few of these available and they are cool addition to your collection. Bayonet not included, but shown for demonstration purpose only. The purchase is for the right sided knuckle grip panel only.
