Very nice bayonets!!
My overall sense of the scheme of things is that the unit marked blades, and special order examples were prewar also. As Germany began its mobilization process units were created, shuffled around, renamed etc. Service terms were extended, reserves called up etc. etc. The certainty of a fixed term of service, and with a specific unit, was not a realistic expectation for the average soldier.
By September 1, 1939 when the actual shooting war began it only accelerated the process. With by early 1942, Solingen blade makers terminating series production of even the oftentimes lesser quality actual wartime period dress bayonets. FP
