This vintage bayonet was manufactured in Germany for use by the Chilean military circa 1900. With its sharp blade and sturdy construction, it is a unique piece of militaria history. The bayonet is an original item, not a reproduction, and is ideal for collectors interested in weaponry from this time period. Despite its age, the bayonet remains in excellent working condition and would make a great addition to any collection.
The 3 intertwined circles on the ricasso are the trademark of the famous steelworks krupp. The shield is the Chilean crest. This bayonet is type M1895, and was made by Weyersberg Kirschbaum & CO. Solingen.
This bayonet is used with the 7mm, M1895, Mauser rifle that was produced for Chile by Ludwig Loewe and
Deutsche Waffen- UND Munitionsfabriken (DWM) in Germany.
