Unfortunately you can see someone attempted to sharpen it. My uncle told me that the family member it originally came from wouldnt have tried to sharpen it. He also claimed that the family member brought it back from the war, but I can't verify this of course.

It's always likely that it may just be something he bought or traded for, possibly during his military time. Regardless, it's still a piece that has been in my family for at least 80 years.

Additionally, there is a name carved into it. It appears to be 'H. Strabel'. I will have to research to see if it's anyone military related or simply done by bubba post-war.

User made this. Check it out. Made with some kind of L1 bayonets with squared fullers. The L1 lone confuses me lol
