Code: 12124
A recently uncovered 1st Pattern Imperial German Butcher Bayonet.
Maker marked "Alex Coppel Solingen" at the ricasso, and 1914 dated on the spine.
Further inspection marks to the pommel.
The blade covered in old grease, grime and rust, but looking quite bright. A distinct sharpening line for its entire length.
Housed in its original 1st type steel mounted leather scabbard. Slight shrinkage, and the stitching on the rear seam is beginning to come apart, but still solid.
Overall condition is good, being completely untouched and has never been in a collection previously. The whole will benefit from a gentle clean and tidy. The grips show signs of smoothing/modification, but sound and solid.
Strictly over 18's only. Photo ID will be required before this item can be dispatched. Please send this at the time of ordering, to prevent unnecessary delay in your order being dispatched.
