"ARMY HONOR CLAMSHELL LONG DRESS BAYONET W/FROG

"Presented for our customers this week is an extremely rare Army Honor Dress Bayonet (Ehrenseitengewehre). These honor bayonets are rarely offered for sale as they were usually given only as gifts during the Third Reich/Weimer period. This particular specimen features cast floral patterns on the pommel and crossguard and a stag horn grip in the fancy nobby pattern found near the head of the deer. JRB&M has not offered this pattern in many, many years and will certainly be the highlight of any edged weapon collection"
