Andy,
In regards to the 10170 e SS Bayonet, I do not agree that it is not SS. Your database has no mention of any SS affiliation for this particular bayonet and or any other bayonet and that is apparent.
My opinion is that the bayonet is a rework and or battle field salvage. It has all of the characteristics of either. The SS Property Mark was put on for a particular reason and that is usually that the SS did something to the bayonet and then made it property of.
