1895 model Mannlicher bayonet for cavalry carbine - Austrian
Carried by the old Austro-Hungarian army in WW1, particularly by cavalry and artillery units, the distinguishing feature of this is the muzzle ring with the integral foresight. There is a Hungarian maker's mark at the forte, together with an Austrian eagle stamp on the other side.

1895 model Mannlicher rifle bayonet, marked for 73rd Regiment - Austrian
This was the classic KuK bayonet of the Great War. The hilt is marked for the 73rd Regiment, whose depot town was Eger, their Colonel-in-Chief being Duke Albert of Wurttemburg as of 1898. The fruitwood grips date it, as the war time ones were in oakwood. The Mannlicher was an 8mm bolt action with a five shot magazine.
