What about the 52 Marking and the U letter on the CSV U marking on blade ?

[AndyB]

52 is german serialing, should be same on scabbard, the CSZ/U is normal czechoslovak Zbrojovka Brno designation within series U.b.r.Andy

Thank you Andy very useful help .. this one have no serial number (52) on scabbard ...
Do you think this one (U serial letter) i found with trop frog is period WW2 ?

Your presented bayonets are both E3 lion 37 spine marked, so produced in Zbrojovka Brno,plant Brno in 1937, one in U and second in V series, so both in same month probably, both have german using or reworking spures, which are different so mostly used by different german units. The adding of web frog here You couldnt confirm it was from war, normally the hook area of Vz.24 scabbard is different rectangular to compare cylindrical hook part of S84/98, so when long time used, there are wearing spures about it.b.r.Andy
