Make sure you get it from a reputable seller because there are lots of fakes.
I've heard that the Buck and phrobis bayonets are faked.

I would have to agree with b00n on this one. You are better off getting a reputable blade, from a reputable source, and then doing the little bit of work to strip and finish the blade to your liking. Especially if you want to use the blade. There are a lot of M9 shaped objects available, and they are not created equal.
Yes, but the Phrobis Gen3 has a wider edge than Ontario one. I like the wider one.

If you can sharpen, just go to a auto body shop and have them sandblast it. It's the fastest and probably isn't gonna cost much. It depends what kind of finish you want, just bare gray metal is easy, polish is gonna take time=money. If I were you, and you can sharpen, just do it yourself with some sandpaper you can order online for cheap and a bit elbow grease. Probably isn't gonna take longer, the tricky part with sandpaper is going to be the saw.
Thanks first, but I think I need the size of Phrobis Gen3's blade, because if the total width of the Ontario's blade is smaller than the Phrobis one, even though I make the edge wider, I think it will be odd.
a major shooting/reloading supply company, so huge it had a pivotal WWII naval battle between Japanese and American aircraft carriers named after the company, has/had like-new M9s from earlier makers cheaper than you will find most places. Got an unissued Phrobis there, my own self, to match my carried/never used one, and my very carried and very used M7...
Hi, thanks, but I don't know what is the name of the company?
Hi, if you want to a silver-blade and also a brand new one, please let me know where you get it.

Other than those in the military that might actually need to mount it on the end of a rifle, why would anyone want a M-9 as a utility knife?
For me, I just like the shape and it is cool. Of course I know it is a bayonet, but just like it.

This and references to the so-called "big river" site. I love how we manage to sneak around the rules and regulations
.Somehow I don't think the message was getting through to the good doctor.

Well, you will note my post count quite low for someone who first posted here 13yrs ago, and it is because this place turned to a cash cow trying to milk money from every aspect, to even forbidding mention of anyone not paying to be mentioned. So, the good doc is on his own in googling a carrier battle, which is not exactly doctoral in difficulty.
And am raising my rates, the mods can tell the owners I am charging them $29 per post due to increased clicks and revenues for the site, the name is MTNGUNR, which is a name still able to be mentioned by me. But, might be a user name fee just around the corner, who knows? Gold members get to use the letter E.
