John, Dippy & Hubertus,
Thanks much for showing your beauties. I'm interested if you guys have had your grip plates off & if there were any markings underneath. My buddy Jim Maclean has an Alex Coppel marked Luft Forestry which had what appeared to be Waffen Ampt stampings underneath the grip plates.
Don,
I've heard the Wingen/Chromolit connection for years now but recently read it in Anthony Carter's book. With the Ch.A.W. mark on these bayonets, I'm thinking it's a lot more plausible
since there was a connection between Anton Wingen's son Arthur & Chromolit.
