Hello
I have just purchased a german WWI saw back bayonet I could use some help with what the markings mean. Is the lenth of the bayonet odd? Some people told me that they had not seen one this long. Is the markings on the guard the division and unit or can someone tell me where to go to get that info.The name on the blade is V.C Schilling Guhl, and on top of blade behind the saw back there is a crown above a O and that is above a 07. Below that mark there is a crown above a R. The overall measurement is 25 7/8 and the blade is 20 5/8. On the guard there is a B14.R.2.234. .I hope someone can help. Thank you in advance.
