      Not a dumb question at all
      Yes both of these will work on an A.R. 15
      But..... you need to have the right barrel length gas system combination

      16” Mid length
      20” rifle length

      No you could put the M9 on a carbine length it will look like this I’ll post a picture
      But for a carbine length A.R. 15 you need a bayonet with the 7 inch handle

      If you can find an old surplus M7 bayonet (I have one kicking around somewhere), that will work just fine too. But either of these are probably better if you want something practical that'll actually cut. I mean the surplus one will too but you'll probably have to completely reprofile it, they usually don't come sharp at all.

    I know its an old video but hopefully by now someone has told you that a blood groove is literally just a way to expand the metal without adding weight. The blood suction thing is a myth and wouldn't work anyway because the groove doesn't extend out to the end of the knife. If anything that design would create slightly more vacuum.

    The saw back is not designed to saw through wood and stuff. it's designed to help you escape through sheet aluminum and Plexiglas like in a crashed helicopter. Which I once did while I was in the army and in a Blackhawk that got shot down. This was pre M9 days and I was using an air force survival knife, but it worked to get my buddy out of the aircraft.

      I remember reading that in a WW2 book too. The author mentioned that one of his buddies asked the drill sergeant why they would be bothering with a bayonet if they still had bullets in the gun. Yeah... he had a rough day after that.

I think the forged hilt would be faster and cheaper to make than machined part? I doubt the hilt would ever break on either one? And the blood grooves thing, that's to build strength to the blade, I don't think anyone that's been stabbed to death ever had a problem with the knife getting stuck 😂

    I have the S&W bayonet. I've trained and shot a good bit with it attached. Never had an issue. It's actually a pretty sturdy knife. My only complaint is the edge is so thick it is hard to sharpen. Then again, you don't want your bayonet to have a razor edge in case you have to go prone with it attached. Accidents happen.

Then I drove the nylon handle over that and added stacked leather over the end with the locking attachment so it is able to fit a carbine AR15. The handle is a little longer and there is no chance of the tang breaking off. Its tough as nails.

    Generally, 400 series (420? 440?) Stainless which the Smith and Wesson are made from is generally considered soft steel, especially when you compare it to 1095. Since they don't list it as an HC (High Carbon) it will be more flexible, in the cold, then say AUS8. 1095 is more durable and will keep an edge longer than 400 stainless, and I gotta say, hundreds, if not thousands of 1095 Kabars have been used and abused over the years, without breaking a tip. It really depends on it it is a clip point, and the grind angle. Ontario Air force survival knives are 1095, and the tip is known for breaking, though I have never broken mine. Victorinox used 420 (and 440?) steel and is considered soft, easily bent, easily dulled. AUS8 is known to be tough stainless, but I have found it to be brittle in the cold, and 1095 to be more forgiving.

    Hi ~ Knife Guy again. The Ontario has actual saw potential even with the forward stroke. What the S&W has (and most Rambo knives etc, are Not really for sawing wood or anything else. Most folks think those ridges on the spine are a "Saw", but they are not. All ridged spines like that are copied from the Randall "Survivor" knife from his forge during Viet Nam. What they were made to do is to Rip-out the aluminum sides of downed helicopters. Other blades sometimes have a sort of saw on the spine, (like the old Marble's Pilot Survival knife) but the Big notches ya usually see were put there by Randall for a specific purpose. On a bayonet like the M-9 those ridges would make a horrible "Harpoon" effect. Very nasty.
    Good Luck ~ You have a great channel. Thanks for all the work you put into it ! B.

I was bummed out in boot camp when I got my first bayonet the realization it could barely cut open an MRE and only by stabbing into it kinda a let down once in the fleet you realize you gotta buy one a good knife two make yourself a field survival kit to put in your pack and a lot of Pogie bait because to many MRE meals make for a sticky number 2 if you know what I mean!

    The grooves on the combat knives are intended to cause a pneumotorax, in simple words, to make a cannelure to get in external air in to the chest (or tórax), and colapse the lung, to inhabilitate the oponent ! In the M9 the serrations are intended to cut metal ! The last thing anybody want in a fight is to loose your knife or bayonet or your rifle with a bayonet because it get stick/attach in your ennemys body, thing that could happen with the saw in the S&W !

    Same here go with the ontario.I bought a shrader, has cheaper steel, no wire cutter, and serrations. it would be better to havethicker blade to hammer on. best comment is you need a mid length gas system, a carbine gas systen cuts your knife down to just a few inches. things I learned after buying...

    Most S&W knives aren't made very well from my experience with them. Maybe the M9 is worth trying but not if it over $70. The blade being non-full tang is one of the reasons I haven't added 1 to my collection. It's in bad need of a redesign!

      A bayonet makes most sense on a bolt action rifle or a shotgun. Shotguns are close range and limited magazine capacity, so an additional close quarters weapon could be a lifesaver. Bolt actions, due to time spent chambering and aiming a round, benefit from an "always on" weapon. People think that bayonets fell out of favor due to the decline in trench warfare, but I think it's moreso the fact that guns are faster now and have high capacity magazines. An M16 can dump 1,000 rounds per minute, and a highly skilled Mauser or Springfield rifleman could only hope to get 30 rounds per minute off on a good day.

    Put an edge on it all you like it just won’t stay there. I use my okc m-9 to dig up weeds mend fences and throwing it. It’s made the way it is so it’ll be modulated. If one part fails it can be disassembled and replace the part(s) as needed. Ontario bonds the hilt to their tang but earlier models the sheath could be used to remove the screw on tang. In my opinion though M-9’s are over built pieces of crap and you should get the okc 3s that Ontario also makes. It’s a superior bayonet/knife that functions well as a knife or bayonet. The M-7 isn’t bad either.

    I have an Ontario M9 (used by a military unit) and had no trouble at all getting a good edge on it in 5 minutes. the wire cutter works well and will cut nails and fence wire, but not hardened spring wire. The reason the blade does not go through the handle is so you can cut electrical wire without getting shocked. Also, there is a YT video where someone put the M9 on a rifle, impaled the blade in a block of wood, and bent the knife until it failed. It took a lot of force, leverage, and working back and forth to get the knife to break. That FRP handle is very strong and you will not break this bayonet with your hands.

    I cannot speak to the Smith bayonet but there were something like 450,000 M9s produced. It will accommodate M4 carbine length carbines and shotguns on up. It is also a thick and wide blade that is more of a knife than a spear point bayonet like the M7. It is stainless steel. All these features and more make it cost more. The M7 is a parkerized carbon steel spear point blade and there were over 3,000,000 produced. It has one job and that is a bayonet unlike the M9 that can be used for multiple jobs. The M7 will not accommodate M4 carbine length carbines and shotguns. It will accommodate M4 mid length carbines on up. So production numbers and the blade composition/features play a big role in a bayonet's price/value. Then there are new and surplus bayonets that also play a role in price/value. I have plenty of knives but I wanted a bayonet for my M4 mid length so I got the M7.

      @@CRSFirearms The M7 will not fit a carbine length M4 but the M9 will. The M7 will fit a mid length M4. It has to do with the distance of the front sight gas block/bayonet lug from the muzzle. The front sight gas block on a carbine length is shorter than a mid length from the muzzle. The newer M9 will fit most anything but the older M7 will not.

    Bayonets are typically not supposed to be sharp, because it makes them harder to retrieve as they can cut into the bone so when you twist you’ll either snap your edge or twist the body too. Bayonets are a stabbing weapon primarily now it not being razor sharp is excusable but it being so blunt you can saw on your hand is ridiculous.

    You should get the Ontario OKC 3S Bayonet/ I's pricey but definitely a badass Bayonet that's full tang. I don't agree on what you said, I would rather have a high carbon steel than a stainless. That's why stainless is cheaper than high carbon blades. I have a Cold Steel Recon Tanto in SK5 and it's RH is 63-65 and it can pierce steel drums and still cut paper!! Can't do that with a stainless steel blade flawlessly!

    Bayonets are a stabbing weapon. I've heard they're NOT supposed to be sharp. The reasoning I've heard as to why is that if you actually had the bayonet on a rifle and used it to stab someone then a sharp bayonet is more apt to cut its way deep into bone and then potentially be very difficult to get out of someone. A dull bayonet will either crack a bone or at least not cut as deeply and therefore allow it to come out of the stabbed person more easily. I know that bayonets are, or at least were, issued dull. I've heard in Vietnam, sharpened bayonets were confiscated and replaced with dull ones.

  • @Gator-357

    A bayonete is not a knife and therefore is not supposed to be sharp. Bayonetes are for stabbong, not cutting. When I was in the Army, we weren't allowed to sharpen our bayonetes. The M9 is one of the worst bayonetes ever issued. They are heavy and intended to do too many things. I'd rather have an M7 over an M9 any day. There is also no such thing as a "blood groove" they are called fullers and are meant to lighten the blade while retaining strength. Any other explanation for them is wrong and a myth. There is no vacuum formed when you stab someone and a fuller will not make any difference in the difficulty in pulling the blade out. And the original "saw back" design is not intended to cut wood. It is mainly intended to cut through the thin metal of aircraft skin and to aid in pushing the metal out and away from you using the notches to catch on the edges so you can make a hole to get out through, and to cut through rope and thin vines. It is not made to cut wood and that should be very obvious by it's design. Don't waste your money on an M9 for survi al or hinting purposes, you eill be disappointed. They only offer the "tacticool" factor and are not practical for anything other than their intended uses.
