There were some that were blued (Either it was originally or during refurb) but damn if I can tell you why or which ones.

Added: A quick check shows black finished bayonets can be found on the Russian made SKS's, made during the 1949 -1956 time frame.

I think you may have a Russian SKS. The sling looks right too. What is the info on it ?

Yes, this is russian. I tried to capture all useful information. Also, looks like it was refurbished.
