Bayonet Turd Alerts

[Slash]

As the title indicates this thread is for documenting bayonet turds (reproduction, embellished, fantasy, hump-jobs, etc). Would suggest that this area will become very troublesome in the immediate future and it would behoove us to get in front of the issue.

Please follow the format as detailed in the Mauser Rifles 1933 to 1945 - The Nazi Period thread linked here: https://www.k98kforum.com/threads/turd-alerts.37540/

Have collected and organized some older threads below to get things started. Please help by posting your contributions here. This is an area that our forum can and should take the lead on ......

Humped clc 43.
Blade is possibly from a Spanish Standard-Model Knife Bayonet, wrongfully called a Spanish M43. The grips look like repops.
Sorry about the dark pics. All I could get from the seller.

Now even Bayo Turd Alerts! Not a bad idea slash with the escalating prices lately.

This one was listed as an Original WWII Italian MVSN Officers Dagger. It is actually a Ks98 pommel,handle, grips and cross guard ( probably E.Pack) with an Italian M91 MVSN fighting knife blade and an Italian M91 MVSN fighting knife scabbard. I informed seller of what he had. He left the listing title as it was, but in his description added "Handle from German dress bayonet" Some time later changed title to Rare Original WW2 Italian Trench Knife Dagger. So just how is this "original" ?

The clc 43 is probably a clone of india repro, that was mentioned in other thread 9767h Pack.

This one just sold in the Netherlands for a high price. Markings on scabbard are wrong so is the KM mark on crossguard. E.PACK&S 1940 7101C N12335K
