Have you ever seen one of the super rare bayonets that the Germans designed and made at the end of WW2 which had a "Swiss Army" style multi tool concealed in the handle, CINDERS? I've only ever seen pictures of this item and have never seen one in the flesh; it would be like the Holy Grail of bayonets to own.

I forget the correct wartime name for this Bayonet. But INTERARMS supplied a LOT post-war for the Sudanese AR10 Rifles in 7.62mm.
These Bayonets are clearly marked on the metal spine with the Interarms trade mark.

F10 we live in the back end of the world stuff like that would never make it to our shores, but you know the funny thing is the world is discovering Aus and its not such a bad joint even though we have a good smattering of things that will kill you like the White pointer capital of the world that was not a good'un......
I would surely like to see one of those bayonets perhaps Geoff Smith may have seen one I will endeavor to drop him an e mail and ask him

Those are the ones we're used to seeing them with too. It's a hard to find accessory.

Working from memory and if I recall correctly it looked similar to a standard K98 bayonet but it had a combination tool contained/concealed within it's handle. Perhaps someone is able to post some pictures of one, please???

Thanks for finding that information, Mike, it's certainly an ingenious design of bayonet.

Thanks Time B for that never seen one one would no doubt command a very high premium I would surmise above & beyond what a '07 Hookie is worth.
