Buck M9's

[trz]

Joe,
A few months back you posted a list of M9's and who they were made for. On the list you had 8,681 made for Diemaco. I would assume that was Diemaco Arms in Canada? What year was that contract filled? What color were the handles and blades? And finally what markings were on the blade to distinguish them from regular production items?
Thanks for your time
Frank

Frank,

From the notes i have so far, that order was for the Dutch contract. It was shipped in 1995. Information on this particular contract has been very hard to find so far. Handle and sheath color, and blade markings are still a mystery.
eventually this data will surface and be published. THere is a lot of interest in the bayonets.
