This is the other Evertz mark seen on bayonets, the AES initials in a square. This is the only time I've observed this mark on a fire bayonet & am not sure if I've ever seen it on a Heer/Luft bayonet but if so, it can't have been more than once. If anyone has such a mark, please be so kind to post it.

This bayonet is not minty by any means although it's still probably Exc. This piece came to me from Eban for a song, probably because the scabbard had a lot of crud stuck to the outside so I bet a lot of bidders were put off.

This mark is on the reverse ricasso of a late production short model with nonmagnetic pommel.
