Etched panzer dress bajonet for review.

[Jelle M.]

Hello guys,

What do you think of this dress bajonet? All original?
What could be a good value for a knife like that? I see some prices for etched panzer bajonets on the major us dealers but those prices are insane.

Thank you in advance!

While the pictures are pretty poor to definitively answer whether this is real or Memorex, the bayonet and the etch looks like the one on page 181 of Wayne techet's book, German Etched Dress Bayonets. At first blush, this one looks ok to me, but I would want to see better shots of the grip, the rivets and the etch to be more certain.

By Holler, this is a dedication to Anti Tank Unit 25 from Kornwwestheim, and is listed as scarce by Wayne.

Dealers will sell this etch for $800-1200. A good collector to collector price would be 20-30% less than that.
