Bayonet Company: We're Still Relevant

Every Marine is still required to carry a bayonet, making Obama's claim that the armed forces have fewer bayonets suspect

TMZ spoke with multiple people in the bayonet industry who tell us they were shocked and even offended when Obama brought up the weapon during last night's debate. 

FYI—Obama was going after Romney when he said, "You mentioned the Navy, for example, and that we have fewer ships than we did in 1916. Well, Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets, because the nature of our military's changed."
