  • Here is an Austrian Bayonet which was made by Steyr around 1900 for a rifle exported to Hungary, Romania, Portugal, China, South America, or other countries Germany exported to. To fit German period rifles which have a muzzle outside diameter of .612 thousandths.  depending on the muzzle ring sizes. In general the export units were only stamped with the Steyr OE/WG trademark. Some of the German rifles of this period were fitted with old French Chassepot bayonets from the last of the French muskets or the Gras bayonets to fit the bolt action rifles even to the smaller caliber smokeless cartridge Lebels. I do have one Chassepot and two Gras units listed but know that much depends on the muzzle end outside diameter.
    This knife measures 14.75 inches long with a 9.75 blade range but this
    does not
    appear to be a Turkish cut down model. No scabbard with this one. .   Thanks for looking.
