I'm not a knife guy although I have a nice Case folder and a Western folder that was my Grandfathers. Does this one count?

The name brand of the knife: Springfield Armory
The model of the knife: Model of 1905, 1919 production
blade length: "16 inch" was the spec but in reality it's just over 15.5 inches
blade steel: carbon
blade style: fullered bayonet, spear point
Price: this one was $170 when I bought it
Handle material: walnut panels
Handle retention: same hunk o' steel as the blade
Type of action: non-closeable but has a spring catch for bayonet lugs
Ease of sharpening: I don't dare
Type of blade coating and how it wears: Parkerized. Phosphate coatings wear pretty quickly

(This SOB scares me just a little bit when I handle it)
