Title Army bayonet knot (troddel)
Nationality German
Period c 1936-45
Sold

This was carried on the bayonet frog of the Third Reich army and the colours denoted the company and the battalion within the regiment. Worn by ordinary soldiers, especially on the walking out bayonets, in the early years of the war, these knots were even worn on the combat bayonets in the field.

This is in exceptional condition (ex-German tailor's shop) with minor age stains here and there, but no real damage as such, viz the fact that it even has its original cotton tie.

...acquiring this bayonet has completely changed my way of thinking on collecting bayonets. I have become extremely fond of the bayonet... Thanking you once again for the very professional way in which you handled the money [going to the wrong account] problem.
