Phrobis US Military M9 Bayonet

From "American Military Bayonets of the 20th Century"...The M-9 multipurpose bayonette system was adopted by the United States in 1986. First deliveries were made in 1987.

Dad was issued one like this when he was in the army. For years I thought it was his personal knife. Then one day I never saw it again. He eventually found one in a surplus sale and bought it.

[Lulzswag]

I owned one of those M9 Field knives during the 90's when I was young and it was the best knife I have ever had the privilege to carry.

Got a Buck Phrobis III in 1989 while in the Marines. I paid $150 back in the day because you couldn't find them in the inventory. It is a great knife for its intended purpose. I cut alot of bobwire, time fuse, det cord, and wire for communication. Two problems with my knife. One was with the sheath with rivets breaking. A quick fix with some 5/50 cord made a stronger repair than the original rivets. The second was the sharpening stone cracked after about 8-9 years of field use. I never babied the knife and it stood up to alot of hard use.

Bought mine used for $25! Feels nice in the hand like a full tang blade. Close to being my favorite knife besides my trust Buck 119 special

You dont sound enthusiastic about this knife?? This is an awesome knife!! I was issued one and before being sent over before the first Desert Storm, I went to the px and purchased a second. STILL have both!

My M-9 is from ONTARIO knife company in NY state. It its quality equal to PHROBIS/BUCK quality?

[rogerlawson]

The price of freedom is not cheap. The Phrobis is be far the best Bayonet of modern time. Our military deserves the best equipment we can provide. Has many more options than the M-7.

Both the Phrobis M9 and the German KCB-77 did win the 1986 U.S. Army XM9 trials. The reason why Phrobis won the contract was simply because it was a more modern looking design and most importantly it was a domestic design. The KCB-77 did get adopted by other NATO countries like Germany, Spain, U.K. and Israel though.
On a different note Phrobis also submitted another prototype during the trials, it was called PXM9. Instead of having a wire cutting lug on sheath it had a dedicated external wire-cutter attached to the sheath. It was rejected due to its weight.

[terminal]

yes, the wire cutter is at the upper part.

There's more comments COMPLAINING about cs go then there is actual cs go comments.

[tudor]

How much to spend for a bayonet. Id like to buy 1. Any sugestions?

[notnooting]

Nice and helpful video I will definitely buy one 🙂

[spiderstallion]

Factory New night or minimal wear night?

[grdbaba]

My uncle gave me one like that when he first went to the army comes home in April from deployment

[terminal]

This is the M9 Phrobis bayonet which was first issued to troops in 1987. You're thinking of the Lan-Cay M9 bayonet which came out in 1992. The LanCay did not have the lightning cut or the pouch on the scabbard.

[OfficialFuzz]

But do you have it in Forest DDpat, field tested, with stattrak? 

[americandad]

Of course it's necessary. This knife is one BAD MOTHER ! Use a sharpening rod for a great edge. This thing fits on my Mossberg 590 shotgun. If it passed US Military testing, that's good enough for me.

[ryano]

Everyone with something about cs go pls don't put anything we don't care we want to talk about REAL KNIVES

[TheWeaponsBin]

The book I have says it's a saw blade. It says "The saw blade is intended for emergency use, such as light non ferous metal". Will

[cadencero]

Someone said that the saw was for doing damage to flesh. I don't know.
