Presume this means it is "guaranteed steel"?. , looks like a luft knot attached , but what about that flat slide ? not come accross one like this before ,
Opinions welcomed

Will,

Nice looking early production piece with the red felt buffer & that wide diamond bakelite. I have a short Pack with a tough to find mark that has "Garantie Stahl" on the reverse ricasso as well.

Steve,

You showing off again? I'm still using two tin cans & a string to call people =)

Wow, this is a beauty and you did great in going for it. I have its brother as well, although you have it in a nicer condition. It's also marked with "Garantie Stahl" and with the same scabbard. I am sure it's the same maker. Notice the large ball on the scabbard as well as the same heavy plating on the blade. I am attaching some pictures below of the blade and the entire bayonet as a whole:
