K98 bayonets

[zephyr4]

I picked up these K98 bayonets yesterday I have been told the first one is dated 1935 it is marked on the blade S/174 G, is there anyway to date the dress bayonet.

Thanks z4.

you can check the date of the first one on the spine of bayo.

There is no date on the spine apparently the letter G is the date code of 1935.

That is strange, yup letter G is 1935 and S/174 is the code for WKC

The dress bayonet is from the period from 1935 to 1941 going by the logos from the BCN website.
