I do like this one. A 1918 unit-marked WAFFENFABRIK. The documentary sources indicate that by 1917 they had producd more than enough for the Reichsheer, as do the large numbers of 1917-dated ones that are to be found in Turkey - and clearly enought by then to distribute to the Landsturm!. 1918 examples appear now and again over here, 1916 are uncommon to rare, and never seen a 1915 one here yet. This bayonet, by the way Dimitirios, seems to have been the standard Turkish army bayonet during the 19 19-1923 Turkish War of Independence, and is seen on rifles carried by the Turkish army into the 1930's - and there are shortened examples as well.

 

Just out of interest, how much does it weigh? I'd like to compare it with examples that I have recorded...

another ersatz plain 98/05 bayonet

with rare war time unit marking

22 Infantry Regiment

It is strucked by a bomb fragment on the handle mayebe????

The ersatz bayonets with unit markings, are 0,5%, 1 in 200, so a rare piece.

more ersatz unit markings, very rare and interesting also.

Off course my latest item, a berthier french bayone [Mousqueton Modele 1892]t, with DEUTSCH marking and a very rare regimental marking.

The unit marking on this berthier bayonet, is the ONLY one of the 2 known until today [the other one is 6.1.158] and have NEVER seen before.

So, an extremely rare bayonet, in fair condition.

This kind of bayonets [Berthier], were never used as bayonets but always[solely]  as sidearms and they are unmodified by the germans.

On 1914, there was in service only the 1st model, so is logical why we have not seen the 2nd model used by germans. 

I hope you enjoy my photos, more phpotos will come soon.
