Police Bayonet Questions - 09/06/2019 01:46 AM
Hello All,
Posted about this bayonet many moons ago, but could not locate old posts.
This was inherited from my Dad, who was in the Merchant Marines during WWII.
It shows its age, but is still solid after all this time.
WKC, matching S.B.5404, with NCO knot I got from Johnson's (Dad said it originally had an all silver knot, don't know what became of it)
Reagrding the frog, it is stamped with what appears to be:
BERL KOFFERFABRIK
INH MAXDENGOW
BERLIN SO 16
1936
Any rarity as to the maker?
Is it common to be marked like this
Hopefully I attached the picture correctly.
Thanks
