Bayonet Identification

[Freebird01]

Any of you guys on here into vintage bayonets? I was recently going through my father-in-law's gun cabinet. He passed away about 3 years ago and this is the first time opening the cabinet since he's been gone and I found a bayonet in there. It almost looks Japanese to me but maybe one of you guys can help me out.

I don't believe it's Japanese. I don't see any Kanji symbols on it and the proof marks appear to be European.

French?

So after doing some research and talking with a friend of mine I'm pretty confident it's a French Gras bayonet Model 1874 from WW1...

Found another one a little more local

I thought it resembled a 1899 Remington falling block with that big loop and knob.

The profile of the blade is different than the one in that picture and it has no markings on the blade itself other than what's in the picture. The Hilt and the handguard looks similar though
