Re: Siegfried Waffen E. Pack & Sohne Solingen bayonet with P.R.8. stamp.
Odd bayonet. They usually do not have a company logo on the blade,
or a 'buffer pad'. It's possible that it was a private purchase piece,
or a police bayonet. I am not familiar with the numbering,
but there are others who will know.
It has been very heavily cleaned to the point where there is
no original finish on the bayonet or scabbard.........

Re: Siegfried Waffen E. Pack & Sohne Solingen bayonet with P.R.8. stamp.
Not the first one of these that I have seen mated together. The P.R.8. marking is typically associated with Spanish bayonets, and I am going to venture a guess that it’s a two piece Spanish copy of the 98 Mauser series bayonets (the M1943) that has been disassembled. Had the rivet punched or drilled out, with the process repeated on a German dress bayonet (which is also made in two pieces.) With the components from the two different bayonets then being adjusted to fit and re-riveted. (And the grip screws are backwards - but you also see that sometimes with badly reassembled German bayonets). Fred

The second piece is a turkish M1935 bayonet, market value 25-30 Euro
