This is cool, this is something I've never seen on TH-cam before. It's like a vid on breaking down a firearm. And it is as important because a user should be able to break down and maintain their equipment. Great video bro!
Oh yes buddy this is an easy break down but I am not sure if a lot of the non-military owners of these knives know they should check them out every so often! I hope the knife making is going good! Cheers :D
Well, I like the fact that you didn't try to pass the M9 off as something it isn't. They are indeed multi-purpose, and a lot of guys use them as survival knives, but the M9's primary function is that of a direct secondary weapon, designed for high strength in forward thrusting. They are tough, granted, but not suitable for prying and batoning (which I wouldn't do with a knife anyway). Personally, from a Marine's perspective, I favor the OKC3S, but the old M9 will always be a favorite... Plus you can repair them and buy new parts readily. Good video.
Yeah man! Awesome knives but more of a multitool really. Just a very iconic knife for me Ive always enjoyed the overall style. Glad you enjoyed & thanks for watching!
Just a heads up, as I didn't see it mentioned, but the sheath actually has a flathead on the end that can be used for removing the bolt in the end cap. Great video!
Well how about that!!! LOL of course I didnt realize that! Thanks :) I appreciate you watching!
Thank you for reminding me why I did not buy this bayonet. It seemed very weak in its structure to me. It was a foolish idea to make it easy to repair if it broke. I own many 20th Century bayonets that are full tanged, high quality weapons. I made a custom large solingen bowie blade with a M7 handguard and butt attachment to fit my Mossberg 590 perfectly. I used black walnut for the grip scales and made a custom harness leather sheath. The US ARMY still taught bayonet fighting when I was in basic training at Ft. Bragg, NC in 1968.
Hey thanks for the info & sounds like you made quite the knife :)
2:40 start disassembly
Thanks for the update & for watching!
@Jim The Raspberry Hey Mr Raspberry as I just scouted your page & I see no content & only 2 subscribers. Best of luck if you add your own videos but I doubt you have the fortitude! Cheers & please feel free not to come back :)
Awesome knife, the antagonist from hatred uses it
Oh man almost NOBODY ever disassembled the M9 on TH-cam I mean man its funny too since the M9 is one of the most iconic knives ever made.
Thanks man I deemed it video worthy :) I like this knife complicated or not! The Ka-Bar fighting knives are not designed any better and those are great for a lot of stuff too.
Loving the Bertucci up on the wrist
Yes good eye I still have one to this day! Great watches :)
I have one, it's beautiful.
They are lovely knives for sure :)
I have the Ontario OKC 3S Bayonet which replaced the M7 and M9 bayonet. I love it because it's full tang and indestructible and current issue. Good job on this video, I never saw this version of bayonet taken apart before.
I would love the new one as well! And thank you glad you enjoyed the video!
You should definitely check out the Ontario OKC 3S. It's a great Bayonet knife, I'm also wearing it right now as I'm typing this. Out of 33 knife or knife companies, only Ontario got the contract for the U.S. military to replace the M7 and M9 Bayonet. It feels really comfortable in the hand due to the Dynaflex handle, it has a ceramic rod at the back for sharpening, and the sheath is really awesome with a drainage hole at the bottom and has multiple ways of being carried on you. It is the best Bayonet I have ever bought and used. You can see the tang at the back as it is a full tang. I have never saw this knife break and I would trust this blade with my life. I paid $170 Canadian for this knife, and though it is pricey, it's one of my favorite 1095 blades in my collection.
I have wanted one for some time but not pulled the trigger on one yet. Thanks again for the insight!
Check out the bayonets by Eickhorn Solingen.
They are made of spring steel and pretty much indestructible. I have the SG2000 on my Mossberg 590a1 for bore hunting.
The screwdriver blade on the wirecutter is intended to remove the screw in the heel of the bayonet, hence the slots in it. that is why there is a screwdriver on the scabbard and not on the bayonet itself.
I did not know that would work thanks for the info!
Thanks for this video. I have the exact same bayonet from Ontario Knife in western New York. I'll disassemble my M9 and re-assemble with white lithium waterproof grease to prevent rust.
I actually visited the Ontario factory and bought my bayonet new.
Lithium grease is a great idea! And that is really cool you got to do that :) You're welcome!
Excellent effort.
Thank you! Have a Merry Christmas ya filthy animal ;)
I had one a long time ago. I used to coat the insides with gun grease to prevent rust/corrosion in humid or wet conditions & it worked.
Great idea! Thanks for watching :)
Vice and a spanner. Right tool for the job.
Hah exactly! Thanks for watching :)
I knew they weren't full tang, but I'm amazed there is so little extending structure inside the handle...
Yes! Just a thick rod. And there is a reason these were often broken in the field over time. Still pretty solid tools to this day & can be repaired in most cases!
Great video!
Thank you!
You can use the case it came with as a screw driver to break the knife down
Thanks for the tip!
Thank you for making this! Mine had the butt cap upside down from the barrel ring so I couldn't actually use it as a bayonet.
Very odd! Well glad I could be of assistance :)
I just received mine today and it had rust on it and it was brand new too got it from knife center but to be fair it is a m9 bayonet Ontario so I mean I didn't even want to go through the hassle of shipping it back to receive a another one plus the rust isn't bad just grabbed a paper towel and some rem oil and it did the trick the rust was just above the edge it wasn't bad rust it took a little bit of the coating with it I'm going to be using it anyway so ehh
It doesn’t have a full tang but apparently it is quite strong.
They are tough knives & made to be repairable & replaceable.
I'm getting one for my bushcraft gear. Love your sales-pitch. It would be very practical if you need to keep the weight down for backpacking.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
The full tang version of this bayonet would be awesome 😎
There are a few out there by different makers...usually hard to find & expensive! Thanks for watching :)
Get a Eickhorn KCB-77 then. The M9 bayonet copied all its features from that bayonet.
Good one, Brother. - Mike
Thanks Mike good to hear from you brother I hope all is well on your end :)
Justin
Very cool video.
Thank you :)
хорошая вещь !
Cheers from USA!
@@MrLeonidas0001 Thank you 😁! And good health to you ✊ from Russia :) Спасибо ! И вам крепкого здоровья✊ из России :)
Is it super tight the first time you loosened that pommel screw? Was there thread locker on it or loctite?
I cannot unscrew mine.
I can't remember how tight it was but it wasnt terrible. Make sure to have the correct sized Allen key in there too that helps. Try soaking the bolt head in in WD40 that may help some too. Good luck!
Thank you for this video. I needed to know this.
Glad it was helpful!
Great knife to carry in the woods and use. I just don't baton with it. And always have another knife with me. I was wondering when I saw u take it apart. Wonder if the blade by itself could be wedged into a stick and wrapped with paracord to make a spear? Just a thought. Great video! Thanks
I'm sure there would be ways to use the blade in various situations if the handle failed. Thanks for watching!
Where you get those pouch - mag holders in that color scheme
I have picked up 90% of my military surplus gear from various Ebay sellers over the past decade. Alot of what I have has unfortunately been discontinued. Thanks for watching!
Great video, I just bought a LanClay looks like the day the bayonet came off the line. Only think is that the sheath and knife are soaked in cosmoline. What do you recommend to clean it, and should I break the knife down completely? Thx
Thank you! Thats a great bayonet. I do recommend breaking it all down if you can to get all the cosmoline grease out. I would use some sort of gun cleaner & follow up with a polish like Flitz then top off with an oil then wipe clean. Good luck!
I ordered one today, and can't wait to get it... No plans of what I'm going to do with it just yet... Probably Open some envelopes with 🤔..... Good Video 👍
Excellent! I still have this one as well. If you ever want to make it "MOLLE" capable let me know & I can make an adapter for my Etsy store. Thanks for watching!
@@MrLeonidas0001 ok
what is the function of the wire cutter? i know its for wire cutting but what has me blunt is the little thing on the edge that sticks out. is that for use like a flint? its like a mini rectangle that stiks out on the side of the wirecutter
NVM Turns out its a screw driver lol
@@Raaa1111.. Yeah, they copied that feature from Eickhorn KCB-70 and KCB-77 bayonets.
Despite there being that rod inside, I'd image under a bending load the knife will still be good and not easily bust, certainly not as strong under a bending load as a full tang or just something much wider. I'm sure it had to pass some sort of serious requirements in order to end up as issued gear.
Well from what I understand now the knife is made in some many multiple parts so it can be easily repairable & replaceable. I have heard mostly good things about these bayonets other than early models having bad heats treats on the blades & breakage issues. Otherwise there are still modern bushcrafters out there that use a bayonets like this as a field knife! Thanks for checking this out man :)
@@MrLeonidas0001 Hi mate, yes I've read similar. Yeah I too kind of like them too for a sort of "hack around" outdoor knife which is a kind of a beater I guess. Actually, hopefully soon I 'll be looking at one in a bit of a review (I hope, LOL as it appears to have dropped off the tracking radar LOL!)
Ooh very good! I hope it makes it to you ok!
Great Review Bro!
Thanks brother I love this knife :D
nice！
Thank you & glad you enjoyed!
Parabéns
Cheers :)
What i like about its the Rambo feel, you can cut your way out of a car, cut glass the weak spots in the door, double as wire cutter,
YES! The M9 gives that vibe off heavy with the multifunctional sheath too! Thanks for watching!
@@MrLeonidas0001 Plus it just looks like a beast, I a not American but if I had the chance to melee someone with the M16A2 this would the blade for it,
I was thinking about filling the handle completely up with epoxy resin. Should keep moisture out of the handle and I would never have take care of these parts again.
Not a bad idea - thats pretty much how most handmade fixed blades are held together. Thanks for watching!
Cool
Have a Happy New Year!
MrLeonidas0001 Happy new year.I come from China Chongqing 😬😬

If you are breaking your bayonet during field exercise (aka camping) you are doing something that you should not with a knife.
Haha it does make one wonder what exactly was going on to be breaking these knives :D
There is that Mayor Fuglycool guy on TH-cam and he goes to town on one...no problem!!!
MrLeonidas0001 Tactical Adventures yea and he loves to break stuff!
What's the title of the introduction music?
"Hitman" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)
Pretty slick track :)
Great job!
I love this knife! Thank you!
+MrLeonidas0001 I just put one on order last week, can't wait to have it though.
I think you are gonna love it :)
+MrLeonidas0001 I have a colt AR15-A4. I think the correct bayonet for this is the OKC3S. Same manufacturer but I didn't see a torture test on that. Only for this M9 bayo, I ordered it anyways even if it's not correct for my AR15. Lol!
MrLeonidas0001 I just noticed after I assembled this one the blade is skewed to the left when viewed from the top. I am attributing it as it is no full tang. It could be the profiling of the handle with the 2-piece tang is not straight. I didn't check this before field stripping.
is this blade supposed to have an off-center grind? I got one recently and one side of the blade basically doesn't even have a secondary bevel. I could touch it up but Idk if it's supposed to be like that.
Yeah I think so - more than likely to make the blade stronger. These were mass produced & made with "finesse" in mind but still very good knives! Thanks for watching :)
All I know is the M9 bayonet looks BAD ASS ON MY 590A1 SHOTGUN!
Oh hell yeah I bet it does!!!
Why would the tang screw off? Like...what is the purpose of that, instead of just being a solid tang.....
From my understanding so that the bayonet parts are replaceable. Thanks for watching!
@@MrLeonidas0001 I get that, nut there wouldnt be any replacement needed if it was just full tang. Also, theres a flat head screwdriver piece at the bottom of the sheath. You dont need an allen wrench.
Who has time to maintain the inside of a knife?
I broke the knife down and cleaned it up because it had never been done before. Its not something I would do often at all. Thanks for watching!
how big is the ring on the M-9?
I measured about .80 inside diameter and oustide diameter is 1.2 inches.
Thanks for watching and I hope that helps!
can u use gun oil to live the m9 knife? ty
Gun oil works great on knives as well! Thanks for watching!
my M9 comes in tomorrow, thank you for this, I think I will take it apart right off the bat and oil the inner workings of this beast. btw, I like that coyote brown watch what is that?
Sweet! You are welcome! And I have a review of that watch up as well:
th-cam.com/video/wxwM1Cic37I/w-d-xo.html
this blade was designed for 1 use and 1 use only KILLING yes it will do some out side stuff I may carry 1 if it were given to me as a tertiary blade but would never buy 1 or plan to count on 1 of these IV SEEN TWO MANY OF THIS STYLE KNIVES BRAKE AT THE GUARD
I have heard similar from soldiers who have used these. I think its good enough for a basic hiking and camp knife but wound't call this and "extreme" survival knife.
Watch this video though!
th-cam.com/video/agt_w_lXHKw/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching!
like I said even as a camp blade it would be #3 at best
iv seen them break in the class I give
Hey thanks for the info I will bear it in mind!
👍
Thank you!
The m7 is superior.
I can't say since I've never used one myself! Thanks for watching :)
@@MrLeonidas0001 you're welcome.
Not even a partial tang, terrible
Mass produced & replaceable! But yes in the long run not the greatest idea. Thanks for watching!
torture test it!
Thanks but no thanks there are several good videos on that already and this is my personal one I want to keep in good condition :)
th-cam.com/video/agt_w_lXHKw/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching and have a good one!
I have the M9 bayonet survival knife Big Back saw teeth it is Sharp I need to kill wild boar like Rambo
Good luck!
They teeth teeth aren’t meant to saw they are meat to tear skin when stabbing and using for its last life situation when you attach the bayonet to your M16, M4, etc
Nope sorry that is not true at all. The saw teeth are meant for exactly that - sawing. Thanks for watching!
Rambo's second knife is look Like an m9 bayonet
Pretty shocking that real m9 bayonet has stub tang and the rod assembly identical to cheap chinese knockoffs. I thought real m9 bayonet would be a true full tang knife.
Well from my understanding they are made this way so they could more easily replace blades & handles since they were a mass produced combat knife.
Your vote count is 420 and far be it for me to roll that over with a thumb but cool video. I've got to add a washer under the guard to make it fit my 590.
Gotta look scary during these times of unrest.
LAO thanks for checking in & stay safe out there! Gotta look like a boss!!!
As a medic, the RATS tourniquet is garbage and dangerous.
Thats your opinion but have you got some more info on that?
I have one for sale if anyone interested
Best of luck!
Dude, take a breath. You don’t have talk every single second.
I do appreciate constructive criticism. It is however unfortunate for people with absolutely no experience with running a channel to give me unnecessary information. If you don't like my style - don't watch.
I like your videos, but you need to get a real watch.
LOL when someone buys me one someday sure will! Thanks for watching!
