Australian Owen SMG Bayonet, 1945.
Well i dont like to use the word mint but im certain that an upgrade will be very hard indeed when it comes to this Owen bayonet. 99% finish on everything, blade, scabbard all metal fittings. The wooden grips are perfect, one small sratch only.The blade is marked MA,1907, 1,45,1, the other side is marked with a broad arrow over...X OA, i belive this is orange factory, Lithgo. One wooden slab grip is marked Slaz,44. The wonderfull condition leather scabbard is marked Mangrovite 44. As allready mentioned, a wonderfull example. UK and over 18's only.
Very Rare British No6 Bayonet.
Here we have a super conditon Number 6 bayonet. Basic design is as the Jungle bayonet but with a smaller muzzel ring. I belive these were a trails made item and were proposed to replace the number 4 bayonet, it would appear that Israel place an order for some, this is what i belive this one is. You wont be dissapointed with this very rare bayonet that does not turn up very often. UK and over 18's only.

Panzer Assault Badge , Silver.
This unmarked PAB is a known variant by an unknown maker, it has sharp details but has lost its original silver wash, original harware to the rear.
Bronze Infantry Assault Award.
Super condition bronze IAB, nearly 100% original bronze finish to front and back, rear hardware is strong and original to the piece. Allthough unmarked i have been told on the WAF forum that this is an example made by the firm ''Funke & Bruninghaus''. Not sure if this one could be upgraded.
Boxed Silver Wound Badge, Maker Marked 30.
Condition of the box is very good indeed, one small knock to the front right side, one small stain to the satin interior hinge. The cross again is in super condition, id say 98% of its original silver finish remaining, the swastika has lost the finish, in my opinion this is from being against the satin top pad since year dot. Badge is marked 30. A very good example.

Very nice condition EK2 with a ring stamp number 25. The iron core has 98% of its original matt finish, front and back, the frame has sone tone from age, good clear stamp to the ring and a fine full length ribbon. A very nice example. One of three i purchased from the brother of the vet who brought them back from Germay.
