Hot-Dog, my M3 just arrived, I will wait to open it when I can take pics to share. I will have to wait until I have free time at work....

I've been curious as well.  I assumed Ontario started making these when Camillus closed its doors in 2007 but  we all know where assuming gets people.  

I thought at this time, Ontario was contracted to the M7 Bayonets for the M16 rifles and bought the Camillus equipment.  (The blade blanks for the M7 and M3 are nearly identical.) But again, I could be wrong.   Ontario may have been making M7 bayonets for decades for all I know!

The leather sheath that comes with the Ontario M3 looks identical to the leather Camillus sheaths that were used from at least the 1970s until they closed.

I've always assumed that the reason Ontario made them was the same reason Camillus continued to make them long after the  military end the contract.  People just keep buying them!

Wonder if you could find out a little history behind Ontarios reason to build these  knives. Thanks, Alan.

After seeing a fellow forum members Ontario reproduction M3, I just had to order one, can't wait for it to arrive. I wonder if these are still being made?
