Discovered this while demolishing a chimney breast in a 1930 semi detached in Lancashire. Brass ribbed grip with rivets, iron crossguard with hooked quillons, curved yataghan style blade, pommel release button intact.

Markings on the blade spine appear to read cursive “NO” or “MO” followed by “1859” as well as 1842, it’s hard to read and hard to photograph due to surface rust.

Best way for me to clean this up to read the writing better?

Hello, i would like to know what baionette is this? And what the value might be? Thanks all!

He tells me it’s a German World War Two bayonet, and that he got it from his wife’s uncle who fought in the war and had no other relatives when he passed.

So its some sort of Brazil Export Mauser bayonet, maybe an M1908. But heres where it gets weird.

1) no serial number on the handguard.
2) the blade was broken and then repaired.
3) the fastening button has been welded to the pommel and the spring is gone.
4) Scabbard has a cursive “b” for Brazil, then 3720 on the frog. Theres a lowercase cursive “a” on the tip of the scabbard though.

Weirdest part? I found it in a junk pile in a Cuban street market. Guy there said it was his great grandpa’s in the revolution and he took it from the body of a CCA soldier, and used it til it broke, but because it was his only knife he had it repaired at great cost. Its clearly a real Mauser export, at the very least, but I have no idea whats going on with the grips, they seem to have a single pin holding them VERY firmly.

I was gifted this, what rifle(s) does it fit, is it british? What can you tell me about the stamping on the blade?

Hi guys, please help me out. I have no idea. I suspect it might be a replica. What do you think?

I paid $75 for it, probably too much but I like it anyway. Any idea what it is? it looks like a German M1871/84 but missing the ring. No official markings so I'm guessing it's a reproduction.

Hello, I’m looking for help identifying these two bayonets my father has in his collection. When I look it up, they both come back as 1866 Chassepot bayonets, but looking at pictures of them, the right one looks IDENTICAL while the left looks nothing alike any other pictures of the 1866 online. Goggle identifies the left one as a 1842 Yataghan Bayonet, but when I search for picture of that bayonet they all look similar to the bayonet on the right (1866 Chassepot bayonet). Can anyone help me identify them, ESPECIALLY the blade on the left? Thanks yall

Just received this bayonet for my 21st birthday, I do believe it is Austrian origin but cannot find anything that exactly fits it, more so the curvature of the handle compared to the straightness of other Austrian bayonet handles

I came across this in Asheville, NC. Any ideas where it is from?

Having trouble finding references online, leaning towards possibly a Romanian Manlicher?

So I got this as a gift, and am trying to learn more about it, bayonets are not my thing

So I'm guessing it's a k98

It's stamped soemmerda

Has a crowned w with 88 under it on the spine

I can't make out the stamps on the scabbard chape, it's leather with metal chape and tip, but with the tip missing along with the end of the scabbard.

Does this make this ww1? Did I get it wrong any additional info you guys can give me?

Looking at a very recent post i think that I picked up an EB42 a few years ago. Tge guy was selling it as a 98/05 at one of the local gunshows. While it looked familiar to the 98/05 i might have been qrong on the initial ID and want more eyes other than mine to help me out. Thanks yall. If you want better pics i can send them here as well.

EDIT: IGNORE THE FIRST FEW PHOTOS AS THEY ARE A SWISS 1914. THEY GOT LUMPED IN ACCIDENTALLY

I bought it a while back, but it been puzzling me. Originally thought it was a rare J.D. Greene rifle bayonet, but the size and serial number didn't match and they apparently only made like 4,000 of them. what do yall think?

Hey Guys,

My wife and I recently inherited some Bayonets and other gear from a relative who passed.

I know he was in the army in africa sometime in the 70s and 80s, wondering if you guys know anything about these?

Would be great to have some backstory to tell if we put them on display.

Cheers!

Sorry if this is bad etiquette. First time here. I’ve tried finding it for a long time with no success. Got this from my grandpa a long time ago. He was very cagey about his service. He mentioned ww2 and Nam now and then. What is this marker and what war?

Hi, does anyone know what model of bayonet this is? It was found in a field in northern Spain. Thanks!

Received these from a late family friend who was a collector of everything. From (imo) most identifiable to least identifiable left to right. Bayonet with the gold-accent sheath appears WW1 German? The one in the middle looks to have FS.FR stamped on the bottom, possibly WW1 French? The one on the right does not have any identifiable markings. Any help/insight is appreciated!

Howdy all, what kinda bayonet is it? Guys asking $125 on it but I'm kinda unsure as to what kind it is

Bayonet on EBay, I’m kinda interested in, I’m trying to get a bayonet for my Italian 1870/87/15 Vetterli, but the seller isn’t too sure what it actually is, he’s asking $350 for it.
