is this an Imperial German bayonet or a German bayonet of some type? It appears to have a crown stamp near the base of the blade. measures 16 inches from top of bayo to bottom of scabbard.

The second letter is definitely an F. I am not sure of the first letter. Looks like an H or a P

Stamp for a Belgian bayonet, are a Royal Crown above the letters ' HF '.
For a Belgian Mauser 1889. Rare bayonet, appreciated by bayonets collectors.


The same mark ( acceptance stamp, or maker's mark ), but this one with 'JD ' letters.
