HI IS THIS WAFFEN SS BAYONET. GOOD OR A FAKE
Thats a fake. Its a combat bayonet and not a presentation type.
Thanks for that is what it says about it FOR THE RECONAISSANCE UNIT OF THE LAH WAFFEN SS DIVISION. THESE WERE GIVEN TO SS SOLDIERS INVALIDED OUT OF SERVICE,
It's a pity to see all those original bayonets ruined in an attempt to make a few extra bucks...
Thanks for posting the photo, Ant...
cheers, Glenn

Yes Glenn, its really depressing.
I think that this says that it’s from the LAH-Portuguese Doppelgänger Reconnaissance Detachment. Fred
Good spot Fred! Common belief is that these came out of the UK in the 70's, I wonder if that is still the case. I mean, are they still coming from the same source and on what scale?

I thought they came from Poland...We've been seeing them here on the Forum for many years now...
cheers, Glenn
Yes Glenn, in 2008 I was in the flea market in Prague. Perhaps 15 fakes for a good one!
This market don't exist now.
