Silver Bayonet Kilt Pins - Good Idea?

I just remembered--the legendary Sykes-Fairburn dagger is a handsome design and would make a great kilt pin with a lot of appeal to anyone familiar with its use in WWII and after.

I think a K-Bar or bayonet would make a great kilt pin. Now if we can just find an NCO sword kilt pin...

Good idea, especially the K-bar model. Just don't forget to put it in your checked baggage before going through airport security.

Having served as an officer of the "Bayonet Division"......the 7th US Infantry Division, I would love to have such a kilt pin. When I was with them in Korea in the late 60's every man assigned to the division, officer and enlisted and including medics, cooks, aviators and clerks, had a half hour of bayonet training every week
