Dress Bayonet - Tiger

[weller]

I did not have a Dress Bayonet in the collection, and since I have a thing for the Tiger blades I added this one. Also, liked the 2nd marking which I believe is a distributor stamp from Munich.

I'm with you. A blade made by Tiger just sounds cooler anyway. Nice one!

I like this one a lot. One of these is on my list..........

Phil, would it be the extended guard on both sides and/or the lack of a bayonet rod groove that makes this a Fireman example?

It's a Fireman's dress bayonet, or "sidearm", Seitengewehr. I have the Polizei version of this Tiger Seitengewehr, don't think the other logo is on it, other side is blank I think.

I'll add a pic tomorrow, I didn't think it was an item anyone would care about that much.

Hallo,

this is not a bayonet... this is a Faschinenmesser for fireman. Worn in service not only walking out. Regards.

Here out of original service regulations:
