I would personally ebay such an item. I have saw a lot on there go for more than its worth. Sounds like a neat bayonet. I never heard of this maker you and Jim K speak of so I assume it to be a rare maker. The original scabbard has a big impact on the value. The "US" in the flaming bomb is the correct one, with the "USN" above "MK2" being a common replacement scabbard although that replacement would have been done post war. Nice 16 in bayonets with original scabbards usually go for for $250 + on ebay. Some early 1903s (same bayonet, but earlier, with diff scabbard and grips) can go for $400 or more, depending on several factors.
