Hello,
two weeks ago I was full of adrenaline!!!! I managed to enrich my collection of military equipment....
I visited one old and abandoned building twice and each time I found something.
Watches and zeltbahn I was cleaned. Bayonet is British. Colleagues said it is estate of our soldiers who served in Britain. Probably he is brought home after the war.
Zeltbahn:
Gau XVI = Westfalen-Nord (Generalarbeitsf�hrer K�hler)
5/512 = Neschwitz in Sachsen, Schilbach
The first piece is a different mmaker - taken down from the mount. Other pieces are from the maker: W.Linnert; Bielefeld

jirka, Don't know much about them, but if those frogs are all legit that'd be one heck of a nice find!  Bill

Wow, what a find! I think the cut down British P07 bayonet/scabbard with German S84/98 frog is very interesting. Would like to know if there are any rework markings on this bayonet/scabbard. The frogs are definitely issue. I cannot make out the markings, but "kvz" (Timmermann & Wollet Kofferfabrik, Heidelberg) tended to place their code along with the date in a box in the identical spot. There was also a maker from Bielfeld whom used a box, too. It it a good thing I don't live where you do, Jirka, or else I would be out with a sledge hammer & a shovel on a treasure hunt everyday!
