Title KS98 dress bayonet
Nationality German
Period c 1939
Sold

Luftwaffe Flak NCO's walking out bayonet, on account of red felt slot filler (indicating Flak), bayonet knot with grey leather strap (indicating Luftwaffe) and silver bullion elements in body of knot (indicating NCO status). The blade is maker marked for 'Anton Wingen, Solingen'. Half a million men served with the Flak crews in Germany alone.

95%+ original paintwork remains to scabbard, leather strap shows signs of age with a fair bit of flaking of the surface. Very minor pickling to the nickel silver finish on the mounts of the hilt, otherwise OK.

Just to let you know that the bayonets arrived safely this morning and I am extremely happy! They are everything that I had hoped they would be, but better! I am extremely pleased that i purchased them from you. The 1867 Albini ... is an absolute beauty, the blade is immaculate. The other is in fact in far better condition that I had imagined as well. So all in all, I couldn't be happier! Many thanks Chris.

I very much look forward to doing business with you again in the near future.
