I am working with a manufacturer, to get copies of Red Army wooden crates produced.

What would you like to see?

Do you have any pictures, measurements, or other information that will be necessary to produce accurate copies of the boxes/crates you desire?

Rare matching SGX Grey Ghost Bayonet

Hi. A friend has asked me about this bayonet, but I still know little to nothing about them. The seller has described it as above, stating that it is an extremely rare and sought after bayonet. How true is this? The asking price is $675 and this seems to be awfully high. Please tell me if this is the correct info regarding this item. Thank you.
Tom
