Rare Cetme bayos.

[arnaiz]

Here are any bayos of my old collection to Share.
First is Navy bayonet, same as Army but dark blue scabard, and numbered FNXXXX, instead ETXXXX. They have different marks if they were made under Francos era or Juan Carlos.

Second was made to sell to Guatemala.
Polished, not blued, plain grips with different shape and canvas frog.
Called Export Modell, or Guatemalan model, I dont know if was sold to another country.

This third model was issued in a very very limeted number to Guardia Civil Police.
Guardia Civil, in spite of their name is a military corp with similar funtions to French Gendarmerie or Italian Carabinieri.
Quite similar to Export model but leather frog.

Are there many in the US?
Did Century get any of these?

I have only seen photos of those models of bayonet....

I too would love to get my hands on one of the Export or GC bayos.

I check many US auctions houses and web looking fro bayos during years looking for bayos, because I am collector, and have never seen one.
Here very few think about 200 USD ...225 if new, and not easy.

So the ones with the smooth grips and black finish what were they used for?
