"This is another example of a WA Horster Bayonet being supplied directly to the Waffen SS. 43 asw, with insignia in grip."You should read a manual of Reibert or other german manuals, to soldier was forbidden a make any changes or upgrades on the material that he got, so any emblems added to grips or similar things are with high possibility made postwar by owner or Gis to make it better his bringback. The dress piece KS98 is other story as buyed privately it could be upgraded. So this piece were army piece and could go to W-SS formation certainly, but this emblem proofs nothing. Important like mentioned FP is how is there prepared.
