Hey everyone,
I have recently come across this bayonet from a guy in America and he doesn't know what sort
of Bayonet this is, i have been asked if i would like to buy it but obviously id like to know a little more
about it first. I know nothing about this bayonet so any information you could help me with would be
great. Sorry about the lack of photos, i asked for more but they haven't come yet.
Thank you for your help.

A Turkish M1935 bayonet. These do vary somewhat with the fullers and pommel design, but the marks on the pommel are "AS.FA" indicating "Askari Fabrika" meaning it was military factory production. This one is in quite good condition, many are heavily worn.

So because Turkey were neutral in WW2 its unlikely it ever saw combat?
Also what do you think it’s price range would be?
Cheers

Anderson is spot on for the bayonet. For value, you can compare the same model to others that have sold or are for sale at the standard sale and auction sites.
