Hi /k/, my dad found this bayonet in the back of our garage. You guys know anything about it
?
That's definitely a Cherokee arrowhead

its a Generic cold war era western bayonet design. Basically it was used by everyone in NATO.
All I can tell you from this image is that its old, (60's-70's perhaps) and its NOT for the german g3. from what little I can see of the lug, i'd assume American just because.
However, the crossguard of the knife does not look like it has a slot to make room for the barrel.
Either way, more images required. and before you ask, no. its not worth anything in monetary value in that condition.

That's a late model Garand bayonet, the cheap one designed to slot into the gas plug instead of around the barrel.

M5 bayonet, designed for the M1 Garand during the Korean War because soldiers had a hard time mounting the WWII style bayonet with heavy gloves on.
The nub goes into the gas plug, and it's the only US bayonet in the last 100 years or so that doesn't have a barrel ring.
it looks like a m6 bayonet for the m14.
