I have no idea what the Ross bayonet is worth, it sure looks like a nice one. Are you interested in selling the No.5 bayonet? I have a carbine built in 1947, it would be nice to have the bayonet from the same year.

The brass doo dads in the wallet are button sticks, you slide them under the button so you can polish it without removing it from your tunic.

I looked the bayonet over (closer) and found a P5 on the front lower tang, P (in a circle) 1947 on the blade, Z8661 and a Arrow (government property mark) on the rear metal portion of the handle. The metal on the handle has been painted green (over the original black), not factory. I left it because it might have some meaning. It would be easy to remove. I have no scabbard. The blade is almost new in condition.
I have no reason to keep it and I would rather it go to someone who appreciates it. That goes for pretty much all of it except maybe the googles, as I just found a picture of my great uncle wearing them. My Mom's side of the family is German
so thats where I am focusing my attention. I would sell it or if you have anything German pre-46, I would trade..... I really need original pistol magazines and holsters (walther, mauser, luger, sauer).
