    This is not one I would pursue Alex as it has a few odd things going on. The grip plates I believe are staghorn but ground down and polished. The front grip is very unlike most stag grips seen on Police and dress bayonets. In fact usually the most deeply rutted craggy plate was put on the front and the smoother less interesting plate was on the back. In this case it is the reverse.
    Secondly the Weimar badge to me looks a little new, untarnished or worn. Is it recent? Puma mark looks OK, the blade we can't really see due to light and angle. The frog is not a Police one (and should be black to match scabbard). Scabbard seems in very good order but again we can see little of it.

    Thank you.
    I have a nasty felling about this bayonet.
    Too new to me, but the Puma logo is 100% authentic.
    ...so.., never senn before and after too Puma made weimar polizei bayonet.
    Can somebody show me another one?

    Anderson is imo spot on.
    To me this one has quite a few red flags.
    I would also advise to stay away from this parts dagger.

    Puma made Polizei bayonets in the 2nd half of the 3R although I've never seen a Puma clamshell. This example looks to be a mixture of parts cobbled together but they were not originally in this form.

    The blade is probably a standard KS98 bayonet blade. The hilt looks period & the scabbard might be a period example but the grip plates are not stag & poorly fitted. I suspect the grip emblem is not original either but can't be sure. Frog looks to be a Czech item. Not a good example by any means.
