Hi Everybody,
I picked this up recently. Bayonets are not my thing, so I could really do with some help on this. In short, what is it? It's marked for WKC (spelled out in full). So, I'm guessing it's pre-Third Reich. Am I right? What about the other marks? Proofmark? Serial Number? And the mark on the other side of the blade from the maker's mark?
I haven't been able to find this in any of my books. It measures 310mm overall and the blade measures 190mm.
Please help.
All the best,
Toby.
