I attached a zipped photo of an etched SS dagger. I was wondering if it is original or a reproduction. I believe it is a reproduction etch on a original bayonet. Does anyone have any suggestions or information on this bayonet.
Thank You
Steve,
Please figure out how to post the picture itself. That way we'll have a copy on the site. There is advice in the welcome area above and the computer help area below
Thanks
Dave
2nd try, hopefully photos are attached
Thanks, Steve. I appreciate your effort.
My strong point is SS daggers and this is a bayonet, but I don't have a good feeling about it.
I've observed that items with skulls and SS runes often turn out to have the etches applied much later. Hope I'm wrong.

Nope. Not a chance.
Nice laser etch, though.

Thank you, it looked to good to be original.
No good, nor is the portepee. The bayonet was postwar etched in Europe, some in Great Britain. There is a variety of these, some SS, some not.
A nice dress bayo damaged by a fake etch imo
