Please help identify bayonet
Hello!
Two days ago I have seen strange and "unsightly" undeterminated bayonet.
I have never seen anything like it before
It seen very unusual.
Crosspiece looks out of place.
Topmount, frog stud and endmount of Scabbard seen kind of weird...
By my opinion it was assembled from several different bayonet's parts.
Blade lenght: 445 mm
Blade width: 30 mm
Does it original authentic (German?) bayonet?
What do you think?
Yes it looks little strange, anyway there was small german states that could have small number of different models, any better photos could help on it, the handle looks like of belgian bayonets, crossguard hook looks like prolongated, the large muzzle ring on diameter speaks for Dreyse or earlier muzzle loader rifle. It could be too a repair of something. Any markings on blade or on other parts? 298 serial on pommel speaks for small numbers. Measurement of main part and MRD of barell ring could help probably. The condition of handle rivets speaks for replacement of handle.
