The bayonet is complete and has several markings on the blade, top of the handle and sides (please see all photos). One side of the lower section of the blade is marked "ERFURT" with the crown above, and other otherside is marked GEBR. The top of the handle has a marking I cannot identify below a miniture crown the same as on the blade, and the side of the handle has a "Z" engraved on it. Blade length is 10 inches, with a total length top to bottom of 16 inches.
What sets this blade apart from is that the spikes are still intact and in great condition- they are still sharp! The bayonet shows slight signs of wear from being issued but is otherwise in excellent shape-This is a very nice and seldom seen bayonet that is very hard to find! This would look great in any German militaria, Bayonet or sword collection! R U S S E L L M I L I T A R I A is proud to bring you great militaria every month!
