NorthStaffsPOW Posted 10 February , 2019 Share Posted 10 February , 2019 Trust me, woodworm can be very choosey. I have seen pieces with just one or two holes in, like yours, and I have seen pieces riddled (saw one today actually). In all likelihood the are probably old holes. That's my two cents unless someone comes up with something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave66 Posted 10 February , 2019 Share Posted 10 February , 2019 Looks like woodworm to me, had enough experience with the blighters over the years, they seem to like my old furniture! Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zuluwar2006 Posted 11 February , 2019 Share Posted 11 February , 2019 I WILL DISAGREE GENTLEMEN... the 2 holes are in parallel. we can assume that there was an emblem over there attached on this bayonet, as this was usual practie for veterans of ww1. regards, D.

trajan Posted 16 February , 2019 Share Posted 16 February , 2019 (edited) That blade looks to be shortened and to have parallel edges - could be the way the photograph was taken or is it a Yugoslav modified one post WW1?
