"Crank Handle" Bayonet
A guy walks into the office today to show me this. From researching these boards I know a little about it. From what I understand these are heavily faked. This one is missing the rivet at the throat of the scabbard which I understand means that it is somewhat dubious. This is not my area of collecting, and a little knowledge is dangerous, so opinions are welcome.
Best Regards,
Andy

Looks to have honest age to it. Pity it has been cleaned.

An original "DEMAG" without its leather fittings/paint & the tip missing from blade....still a nice piece IMO...I have one of these for sale....its in classifieds, but the photos have not uploaded for some reason..so here's mine..for comparison...for some reason a part of the cross guard has broke off ! (before I got it !)
Prost ! Steve.
