i am pretty confused on how things work when its about detecting, can someone clear it

i recently bought stainless steel knuckle dusters, they are pretty good and weigh 110grams, they are completely no magnetic, my question is, can metal detectors detect it? i have many stainless steel rings and i wear 4 of them at one point and all of them are non magnetic too, they are never detected by any metal detectors, so does the same thing happen with the dusters? or does the weight of the item matters?

edit :- also wanted to add that these are obviously illegal in my country, these are sold as "wall decals"

Could you build an infantry railgun that can match or even surpass that of contemporary 5.56 or 7.62 rifles.?

Can anyone tell me about this bayonet?

I was given this as a gift and was told it was WWII bayonet, but since there doesn’t appear to be any markings indicating manufacturers or anything like that and image search yields only fairly similar (specifically Japanese) bayonets I really can’t verify the origin. I also don’t know enough about weapons like this to know if it’s just old or just poorly cared for. Is it authentic, a commercial reproduction, or maybe something someone made just because they thought bayonets were cool? I’d love any insight y’all have.

How to fix my BO?

After about 2 years my(i think red oak) staff has this little piece coming off. Would sanding it and re spray with the gloss finish be ok? Also what finish am i supposed to use for this 😅. This piece did not lift off a spot that has a bruise from previous dropping, does that mean its not good quality? Thank you
