The M9 Bayonet from OKC is a USGI issued bayonet for the M16 rifle. Officially adopted in 1986, the M9 is a great improvement on the earlier M7 bayonet. With production numbers approaching 500,000 the M9 bayonet is a true battle tested bayonet that can double as a fighting knife.
This is the best blade that ontario make's period...I have several, always the quality you would expect from Ontarion...sharp, solid feel to it....A+ blade for self defense...plus its bayonet compliant....Buy it and enjoy

It fits, it’s sharp, it’s green
Review byKeepshooting Customer
I got a used Ontario M9 from KS (I didn’t know that when I ordered it). The package was sealed in Amazon packaging, as new, the knife is clean and straight, looks unused. No doubt I will get years of use out of it. As others have said, for the field it doesn’t have all the “cool knife fight feature” extras, but is sharp and does the job it’s designed to do. A true workhorse in an M9 knife, I’m satisfied with the knife. It’s green.

Exactly as described
Review byKeepshooting Customer
My brother has a collection of various weapons and this is his newest purchase. As expected this knife looks, feels and wears like a high quality product. It fits his collection well and seems to match the U.S. Army looks. The sheath appears to have great materials and construction and offers the security needed to retain the knife during active use.

Good Knife For the price
Review byKeepshooting Customer
The edge wasn't that great. A good smith could probably fix that. But the knife itself is pretty good. 1095 is the better steel. Still good for light to medium work. This was the only place that had it for the right price. You'll never use it at Marine Corps Quantico

Perfect, except for the edges
Review byKeepshooting Customer
Aside from minor details that some are likely already aware of, this is a well-built, combat-ready M9. I did not know until after purchase that these bays do not accept GI m3 or newer bayonet sheaths, so you'll have to get a leather model or something else appropriate for this particular bayonet. The fit and finish are top-notch, and you will find very few if any imperfections on the steel itself. For some, though, you may find it unsightly that the sheath has holes in the molded portion of the grip, the sheath, and around the pommel and base. These do not effect the function of the sheath, but are likely a cosmetic issue for some individuals. Overall, a great addition to the personal weapon of those lucky enough to still have them.

This is a great knife. I have had mine for 10 years and it has held up very well. It's sharp enough to shave with and has a good edge retention.

Delivery was right on time. The knife was like sex; I knew I would like it before I got it! Ontario is one of my favorite companies! They don't waste their time or mine by building trash. This thing is a HOSS!! Oh yeah, the wire cutters are not just there for looks either!

The M9 bayonet Made in USA
Review byAide B.
<span>Original Ontario Knife Company M9 bayonet w/ sheath. Good price and FAST shipping. Would have scored 5 stars but for a manufacturing defect on the sheath strap. The right threaded brass insert for the strap attachment was overtightened, causing a separation. This is a defect that Ontario should have discovered before sealing the box. I will contact the manufacturer about the sheath issue.</span>

Review byKevinisha F.
<span>This is the real thing. Great solid knife that's already sharp out of the box. The sheath is the original one and comes with a clips that allows you to carry it on a belt in a secure manner. The knife has a special hole that fits into the sheath and becomes a wire cutter. I used it in my job and it works like a charm. An awesome knife for any outdoor activity you can think off. If you have a relative or friend in the military, they would great appreciate it. Highly recommended and twice as much if it is sold by KeepShooting or a Prime merchant--then you know you are covered if anything goes wrong before its in your hands.</span>

Ontario Knife - M9. All good.
Review byJeannene Y.
<span>No problems, all good. I read a lot of the reviews, and several people had defects or issues with their M9. My knife arrived as advertised - brand new in the box. Manufactured in the USA, by Ontario Knife Co. Finish is excellent, blade is straight, sheath is new etc. Keep in mind, this is designed as a Government Issue Item, so the finish will not be as pristine as a boutique pocket knife.</span>
