They were sparsely produced from 1935 to 1940.

With the bayonet, that was a 50% off sale.....

Rifle has seen a refurb and not a Finn scabbard.
Funny. I tend to agree with most of your prices, martin. But I think the price was at best-right on. $350-$400 for the M27 and $150 MAX for a Finn bayo with incorrect scabbard.

May be right. Hadn't considered the incorrect scabbard.

But on a brisk day of Gunbroker bidding wars, a scarce and late production M27 that would fill an empty slot could be $7-900, all by itself. These late and usually 'unissued in appearance' guns have a solid following.

Next question is the fiskars bayonet, I've come across a earlier one, what's the going price for these with scabbard.

I will have to defer to you, sir! You are infinitely more up-to-date on market pricing than am I. To me, the only M27s that belong in that price range are the rare early years ('27 and '29), the '36, and any VKTs. I actually devalue the, "purdy" refurbs and won't have them in my collection. :biggrin:

Lately, the Finn blade bayonets (except the M39=more money), have been in the $175-$200 range with Finn metal scabbard.

I had to pass on 2 at the show I bought the 28/30 from. Both were $160.00. I can still get one of them when my gun fund grows $60.00.

The only ones I've seen listed are closer to 400. Would be nice to add one to the collection though

I think you have the M27 bayonet confused with an M39 bayonet.

M27's were made with barrel dates between 1927-1940.
