Imperial German M1898 Bayonet, Erfurt.
This example recently turned up at my local market being found in a shed. Its complete with its scarce leather frog but the scabbard has suffered from the usual ''door jammed bend' 'with this one breaking along the line. The bayonet itself is quite nice with the blade having no pitting just some staining from storage, clear makers stamp to one side and a very clear acceptance stamp to the spine... read more
3rd Pattern Commando Dagger.
A good condition dagger with the blade having a certain amount of its dark factory finish mixed with a certain amount of staining. The cross guard is the longer straighter type with good factory finish. The cast handle has nearly 100%, no marks to be found tot he pommel end. Pommel has a nice round brass tang end.

Royal Engineers ''OR's'' Service Cap.
No date found with this example but going by the construction and style i would date this to the middle 1930's. The cap badge is a ''GR6'' example and the ''GS'' side buttons have Kings Crowns. The cap body is not to bad, one moth nip, but the top has a number of moth holes down to the base. Inside has its complete liner with repair stitching to the sweat band. read more
KS98 Extrawaffen Bayonet.
Long model with the unmarked 25cm blade having 100% of its factory finish with just minor spots here and there, blade has very slight movement. Cross guard and birds hear pommel have minor spotting only, fixing button works. Both grips are tight and without damage. The steel scabbard has no dents and i would say over 50 % of its factory paint, the rest has toned to a nice dark brown from patina. read more

A well used example , good amount of its period finish remaining, number of knocks to the body. Inside has some factory ink stamps. It would appear this shell has received at least three coats of its paint at some point. read more
