German Bayonet , little known about it

[Gil Boyd]

Certainly appears so, not wood or plastic, and each score mark making the pattern is different on all the knives they have, so I summise they were hand made to order wittling at an antler for each to fit.
Uncle says definitley Dress bayonet when in smart Edelweiss outfit. Family were all mountain troops.

Surprised that no info has come up on this bayonet. Where's Old Smithy or Marysdad when you need them?

I'm here but don't really do dress items, there are too many and as said many dont fit the rifles, some with real or fake antler, were made post WWII on the original equipment so real not fakes just not period. Many come with etched scens on the blades, and even colors making for some beautiful display pieces if you like that kind of thing.
