I recently purchased this bayonet for what I think to be a good price and want to give it a sprucing up to go with my recently cleaned up 1912 Sht. LE.
Questions - would the metalwork on the scabbard be painted black or blued?
Would the leather (which is in good shape) be dyed black or painted black?
Handle and pommel - would this area of the bayonet be painted black or blued?
Blade - would it be partially or totally blued or no treatment at all.
Thanks for any and all advice on this project.
