Help with unknown Bayonet!
Hello, I recently found in Greece the above bayonet in relic condition. No visible stampings (except s.n. 73484), muzzle ring removed, perhaps ground down into a fighting/utility knife. Total length is 35,5cm and the blade 22,7cm.
I am wondering what country and era this bayonet is from, any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Aghs

likely a Greek m1903 bayonet but not sure (as this is not my field of expertise) hopefully this helps
Possible, but i'm not sure!
Thanks for the quick reply,

Yes it should be a farmers knife made from bulgarian Mannlicher M1888 bayonet, the crossguard was shortened on both side, and blade heavy sharpened in years because used as a knife. When the locking lenght of handle is 102mm, when shorter so the greek M1903 would be possible too, but with shorter locking distance.
