I like it.

Looks like Thailand or Burma Dao

Lake City,1967. Rich A. in Pa.

Thanks for the information. So it is an Imperial German officers bayonet? Is it for field wear or dress?

Have just received a ww2, 2nd pattern Afrika korps pith helmet, and would like you, much more experienced guys to take a look to make sure I have the real deal or not.  from what I can see in very few books or online the majority of it looks legit, but I want to see if anyone has an issue with it.  I notice on front underside of sweatband maybe a old glue that looks dark 🤷‍♂️ thankyou    

Ricasso marking is Weyersberg, Kirchbaum & Cie. A combination of two very old Solingen companies. Weyersberg used the Kings head; Kirchbaum used the Knights head.  At the end of the monarchy in 1918, the company dropped the Kings head and continued production using the Knights head.

Thanks. Here's some better pics.

Is this an Imperial German (or Third Reich-era) German officer's bayonet?

Dom,   A nice looking M34 Fire/Police helmet. I think there may have been a decal under the police decal and this one was placed over it, (It appears to have a second border which may be again a decal underneath. (Maybe the police decal was damaged... Not sure.. just my thoughts) OR.... It may just be a thick black border around the decal....   The liner may have been a replacement, but I don't see any real issues with it and it could have been used by Police units with the absence of the Fireman's Comb, but I will add that those leather tabs on the inside of the helmet were for attaching a leather neck guard to protect fire protection personnel from burning embers when extinguishing fires.   Check to see if there are any makers stamps on the rim of the helmet. They may be hard to see with the black paint but they should be present.   Here are some images of my M34 Fire/Police helmet with the leather neck guard and Fireman's' Comb...   ON the rim of my helmet it is stamped:  The stamping on the inside is a one inch logo with a deer in the center stamped into the steel. Around the deer it says Vorschriftsmäßig gem. Anordnung d. MdJ.v.3.5.1934 meaning it was made in accordance with the pertinent law of 3 May 1934.   Others will add their thoughts as well..   Best    Leigh      

Is this the remnants of a Japanese sword, or perhaps something a GI picked up in the Philippines or the Middle East?
