Denny,
My statement about the RZM SS Bayonets comes from the collector's community with no actual documentation bases. Early photos show SS men wearing KS bayonets. Mr Noss provided some excellent photos to us many years back of an SS TV man being married and wearing a KS bayonet with "SS NCO Sword Portapee". My opinion is that "if the TV man had a dagger he would be wearing it on his wedding day." My opinion. Also, what was early production like for SS daggers. Where the daggers readily available. Since the SS got all old left over equipment, did this same situation also push them to the back of the bus for dagger prodsuction?
I have a great picture that will be appropriate to post today if I can get it to Denny. Look at who is wearing a KS Bayonet and portapee.
