The Eickhorn 3227 etch is one of the hardest ones to find. It depicts a training exercise, I assume, with a group of men running across a field.

Fresh from the Cashi collection, is this short bladed double etch Eickhorn bayonet. On one side, we see a darkened (faded blued or faded blackened) panel with the name of Werner Ostmaier. On the other side, we see the 3227 etch.

The only thing about this bayonet that raised a question for me was the lack of the typical Eick fleur de lys bookends. But, the use of the same pattern as on the Eick etched swords for the bookends laid that concern to rest.

Enjoy this rare etch.
