    Double dated ASW

    Should be compared with other early 43asw pieces but from a doubble date point i see not any problems, by large producers is typical the large blocks of material was fullended in next year, mainly by late war is this typical as the production growed each year.

    Police Butcher bayonet for review

    I assume the V notch is in reality here only for presentation but i assume the lock lug is still fully functional, and the piece is attachable on rifle. In 30 ies it was blued by refurbish. nice matching police used S98/05nA.

    Unit markings

    turk rework of prewar period fall out, in case could be reuse of various units in and post WW2, the serialing on crossguard is not typical for police. Unfortunally damaged by someone when sharpening over blue.

    Unit markings

    S98/05naSabg, removed sawback, the blade was sharpened wrongly over blued metall, evidently blued in NS period, so certainly not went to Turkey prior 1945, question remains the unit as is overstamped twice.

    Unit markings

    for me too much serials that would be all german mainly on scabbard area, more real would be reuse by Turks or some others? the N must be not a Navy could be Nachrichten unit, which was not fully stamped, the piece have sloted screws and are reblued, so its possible it was still used in...

    Unmarked late war behoerden bayonet with unit mark?

    Its a 1943 or more real 1944 production so question remains when the digits are unit so what unit? and stamped in war or postwar? hard to answer here, evidently it was stamped on correct place for germans , the 13/1 was electro penciled over a stamping. Could be teoretically a 13.Company weapon...

    dot 42 G.33/40 Pics

    The parts should be compared with other Povazska Bystrica production,( Z in circle or other technological proofs typical for ZB) because of early period of G24(t) it was used WaA607 so not real that they would made any spare parts contract, that would be only by the later production and...

    WKC 1940 10000c

    S.Thiem is not a fully oriented in this area unfortunally to contrary of WW1 period bayonets, even he wrote a book, easy way because he used some of old unpublished archive material of Franz Rudiger, but no one of these people did have a dbase of real numbers or large collection of real bayonets...

    WKC 1940 10000c

    When looking at the pieces that was reported on this forum, there is clear the stamps were done by normal serial mashine not by hand, so the stamping is real, same as occured on reported Gew98 from WW1, on later Kar98k, MP40 production, on bayonets too. The period contracts done by Wehrmacht...

    Elite Diamant

    94 serialed to unknown other piece both grips from one bayonet, WaA253 is a Solingen proof prior 1940. Every part in grip has different assembly number, tang/lock lug?- 20, flashguard 75 and grips 94. By post 1942 should be minimal serials striked out, when assembled and even not new serialed...
