Wow I love it!!

This one is pretty close too. I think it was made in Czecklosavakia (or how ever thats spelled?). There MUST be markings on it somewhere?

Very nice and dang that blad came out better than I thought it would I am so impressed, what about close ups of the matkings? The most information on bayonets I found was a dealer on the internet located in LLano texas.

I've one just like it - standard German issue during WWII M-98 Mauser but most Axis countris made them so it could be German, Austrian, Czech etc.

 

[Monty]

Correct Harry! And the markings don't necessarily mean where it was used as they traded and sold those things between countries all the time. Monty

 

[nhbenz]

Right on. Sorry, I didn't mean to imply it was from the Czech army... its just different enough from my Mauser bayonets that I was happy to find a photo of this variation.

I understand, wasn't meaning to sound like a wisea$$, my bad. My favorite one is one that came with a Persian Mauser and it has all the writing in Arabic or whatever they speak or write there. Farsi? Monty
