US 1917 Winchester Bayonet - Modified w/large 23.5mm ring
Made by Winchester dated 1917 with Flaming Bomb.  Wood grips held by two screws with an oil hole in the pommel.  Fullered blade with some patina and light sharping.  Leather scabbard with 1910 style belt attachment hooks.  A modification of the standard 1917 bayonet which may have been made for the US 1918 BAR (Browning Automatic rifle).  As a heavy automatic rifle designed for support fire, the M1918 was not fitted with a bayonet mount and no bayonet was ever issued.  Only one experimental bayonet fitting was ever made for the BAR by Winchester.  This was a standard M1917 fitted at the Winchester factory with a special muzzle ring which was 23.5mm in diameter. The bayonet was attached to a standard M1918 BAR by means of a special experimental flash hider assembly.  This prototype bayonet-flash hider assembly came from the Winchester in-house factory museum in New Haven, Connecticut with a tag printed on one side Winchester Repeating Arms Co./New Haven Conn., and handwritten on the other side: combined flash hider, front sight and bayonet mount for Browning Automatic Rifle Model 1918 with bayonet and scabbard and the date - September 7, 1918. There is no evidence whatsoever of military adopting this bayonet.  Few of these trials bayonets were made and are very rare.

US USMC Eickhorn Trials 2000 Bayonet
Made by Eickhorn (Germany) with USMC insignia on the blade for the USMC but this contract was later cancelled.  Bowie style blade with USMC symbol over 'Eickhorn symbol' over 'Bayonet 2000' over 'Made in the USA' on left side of blued blade.  Was not made with a wirecutter attachment.  This bayonet was fully adopted and contracted by the military, only to be canceled one month later before full production was started, after many US knife manufacturers complained about the "no bid contract" that was given to Eickhorn. The first 50 bayonets were made for inspection and that was all that were made.  There is little information published about these bayonets.  Later military contracts were issued to US manufacturers (Lan-Cay, Ontario, etc.).  Only 50 were made.  Very rare.
