Forum Members,
It has been discussed many times as to what part WKC actually played in the manufacturing and supply of SS bayonets. This particular SS WKC Bayonet I believe to be a camp assembled Waffen SS Bayonet. The description of this bayonet is as follows:
1. WKC Marked Blade
2. Rough grind on blade
3. Minimum polish on blade
4. 85% / 90% blue on blade
5. Marks on tang: Large H; Large Ar; #5 on oppsite side of tang.
6. No WAs
7. SS Property Mark: Stamped Runes 2 over TK rotated.
8. Accountability #: 368. Looks pantagraphed engraved.
9. Blanko Scabbard with pantagraped engraved 368.
10. Grips: Wood / Camp Made
11. Grips Marked: 1941 & Runes
Ready for questions!
