Andy,
In regards to the 1940 dated SS WKC Bayonet you state that the date is too high for an SS Bayonet. The date is too high as compared to what. What documention & or reference are you referring to? I have other SS Bayonets with higher dates. I mentioned before that I have 2 consecutive numbered SS bayonets with 45 dates. The dating of bayonets by grip marking is somewhat of a standard procedure for reworked bayonets.Richard K
