Title RHQ staff troddel/bayonet knot, 1936 pattern
Nationality German
Period c 1940
Sold

The green knots were only worn by battalion headquarter staff of the German regiments, with varying colours to indicate which battalion. These solid green knots, perhaps the rarest, were worn by regimental headquarter personnel. Also, on a more limited scale, they were worn by German police during probationary service.

This is relatively rare compared to the standard with pale grey strap and grey base.

The condition is excellent, ex-tailor's shop, a recent find in Germany.

The Lee Metford bayonet and scabbard arrived today. I am delighted with its condition and also with the prompt service.

Just wanted to thank you very much for finding the sword - you have made C's day and therefore mine!
