Title Trench knife
Nationality German
Period c 1917
Price £0.00
Sold

Nice example of mock bayonet/trench knife. False pommel button now missing (if it was ever made?). Nickel silver finish with 95% surface intact. Blade with all original factory polish. No maker mark. Checkered hardwood grip, stained to ebony finish. Approximately 70% original scabbard paint remains.

This is typical of what was carried in the street fighting in the early 1920s between the Reds and the Nazis.

Bayonet arrived safe + sound this AM Sat. Special delivery excellent again. Worth the few extra bob. To be honest it was better than I dared hope. I usually avoid polished bits like the plague!! Your price was a bit fierce!! - but a great marking I lacked... Please email me anytime you have anything that might be of interest.
