Nice looking bayonet. Aerial's are my favorite because they were made in Marinette, WI (and they're a bit uncommon as having the lowest production)

I didn't know Aerial was the lowest number produced. 
Is there a posting somewhere with the production numbers of the different makers of the M4 Bayonet?  Ive heard that Imperial made the most but I don't know what their numbers were relative to Aerials numbers... 

I guess its even more appropriate then that this lowest production M1 Carbine Bayonet manufacturer is attached to the lowest manufacturer of M1 Carbines - Rock Ola :-)

I recommend  Gary's book, "American Military Bayonets of the 20th Century". Very informative...Bayonets and scabbards are well covered. Production numbers are included. It is a very worthwhile publication.
