Untitled[edit]

Looks good to me, but the wording is a little off in some places. i fooled around with it a little bit but i couldnt make it right killkola —Preceding comment was added at 09:51, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First paragraph contains several sentences about patenting and commercial sales unrelated to the quality, history, or behavior of the subject. It reads like someone griping in public about counterfeiters, which is important to the article, but I don't think it belongs at the beginning.

Features[edit]

Yes, it does have a wire-cutter feature, but also (if memory serves) a hollow "survival" handle.

Strength[edit]

"Although it has been claimed that the M9 may be more prone to breakage than the older M7, the M9 bayonet has a 20% thicker blade and tang (0.235" vs. 0.195") and a 75% greater cross-sectional area of steel in the blade than the M7." needs to be better worded. Having a thicker blade / greater cross section DOES NOT magically denote whether it will be more prone to breaking or not. Type of steel, process, etc, have way more to do with durability than simply dimensions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:19E:8080:98D0:2D45:7B77:1518:A307 (talk) 22:36, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
