Krag bayonet

[ovenpaa]

This arrived in the post today, a bayonet for a Danish M1889 Krag-Jørgensen, this one was made in Germany which means it has pressed leather instead of wooden handles, apart than that I know very little about it, can anyone tell me a bit more about the German built DK Krag bayonets?

Only thing I can tell you - is that it's very nice tongueout

I keep telling myself that I don't need them for the SMLE and Mauser, and exercised some will power at the Phoenix...but it's probably just a matter of time....

It is odd, they go for silly money most of the time but this one just popped up on eBlag so I had it, USD89.99 + postage which was far too good a deal to miss.

...an investment even!

Hmm... I would not look on it like that, more like an early birthday prezzie for the Viking for her Krag.

'Her' Krag, you say.... :P

[ovenpaa]

Yup, it is her rifle not mine.

[Dougan]

Yeah, that's what I tell my old man about his SMLE...

Nice Bayonet ovenpaa.

Sorry do not know about them..

All milsurp rifles need a bayonet Dougan so when you run out of ammo you can keep zzzzom the zombies away.....

[Dougan]

Ahh, so there is a good reason to have them - Bnz

My father's birthday is in a few months...I wonder if I could get away with Ovenpaa's trick....
