Could it be a post war refurb arsenal stamp??? Maybe it was used post war by a country, was refitted and stamped after inspection?

That would be my take on it too.

Cheers, Ade.

The bayonet certainly looks re-finished - so a post war marking would be most likely.

I agree.....Pete.

Has there been other examples seen with this marking? Just curious.

Reminds me of the "X" always seen on Russian Capture K98k rifles. Did the Ruskies also rearsenal German bayonets to go along w/ the K98ks?

Thats where I have seen the "X" before.....Russian capture
