Carl Grah dress bayonet
Please could anyone tell me how rare a Carl Grah dress bayonet is? I believe in SA daggers it is a hard maker to find?
The top longer bayonet is the Carl Grah and the bottom one is an Aesculap with the different screws in the grip like a Pack dress bayonet.
Thank you kind regards
Luke
Hi Luke very cool..but could you post closeup photos of the producer logo for Carl Grah ?
Its very blurred.

Carl Grah did make bayonets and are quite a rare find.
This producer from what I can see in the K98 data registry is not listed.
2 questions for the Bayo collectors and researchers :
1. What would be the 3 letter code for Carl Grah and I will add it to the data list
2. Could we assemble a list of just the producers for Dess bayonets and I will pin it to the top of this forum.

Carl Grah didn't make combat S84/98 bayonets but did make the private purchase KS98, as illustrated above. They were a small scale producer and as such anything they produced is going to be uncommon if not "rare". They did produce bayonets in WW1. These are nice examples above.
I owned a short fire bayonet by Carl Grah at one time, back when I was collecting fire bayonets by maker and distributor mark. A cool logo that was deeply stamped, it had a lot to like. I've only seen that bayonet and now this one so it's definitely a rare mark on a dress bayonet.
Thank you for the replies. I now hope to save up and get an decent example of an etched bayonet. But will try and get Wayne Techets book first so i don't make a costly mistake!
