Re: Bayonet identification
It's a bayonet for a German k98 rifle ( Second War not first ) with what appears to be a Bakelite handle .
Re: Bayonet identification
And anytihing about the history? When was it made, where? Is it worth something or it is common artefact?
Re: Bayonet identification
Standard German WW2 bayonet. Made in 1938 by Horster.
Not in very good condition - no scabbard so not worth a great deal on money I'm afraid.
