Hows the brightness on these

which church?

I received a K98 from the family of a US GI who was present at the D Day landing, and there were two bayonet, one ser no 4213 C, with most of the bluing still present... some very basic corrosion, but not terrible... obviously period correct for the 1941 K98 with all matching numbers. The second bayonet is twice the length... looking for information on that one as it's obviously for the k98, but pre 1915.

Thank you for the education!

Just as a quick little addition. I have a 1943 AFH with 2 unique variants. 1) It is a cut down version of a 1905. The fuller goes all the way to the point (as you describe) and there is No other stamp on it other than the UC stamp on the catch. I "assume" the bayonet was produced in early 1943, not placed in circulation and then reground to conform to the March 4, 1943 Army Ordinance requirements. 2) ALSO it does not have a Bakelite grip. It has the "red grip" produced by CPP: Columbus Plastic Products, Columbus, Ohio. Columbus Plastic CPP made two types of the red CAB grips, the earlier plain type and the second with a re-enforcement plate in the left grip in the area of the screw hole when the first type proved to be prone to cracking in that area. I have the second version with the re-enforcement plate. Another collectible item - the grips and bayonet was 1 of about 100,000 produced by AFH. The red grip Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (commonly called CAB) was allowed as an alternative material to Bakelite. After some time in field use, it was reported that CAB was not resistant to the solvents used to de-grease the bayonets in the field and would dissolve the grips. About 100,000 CAB grips were manufactured before they were discontinued due to this problem in April 1943. From available evidence, it appears that most of these grips were used by AFH, So the bayonet I have survived thru time from early 1943 and now fits perfectly on my M1 Garand. All of this information can be found on Gary Cunningham's web page "bayonet points #23". Sorry for the long reply. Great video.

Awesome video thanks

Germany change the world😂 NASA tech also came from germany😂

Yes indeed

You should change the word submerged to the word afloat😂😂

You are not prepared for how HEAVY two of these, empty, are when you add the weight to the can to the two magazines!!

Can I reuse the filter

Whats the diameter of the glass lens im trying to find a airsoft safe lens to put over it i found an s10 lens online but im not sure if it would fit

Love these - they’re very collectible. Another notable difference between wartime and postwar variants is the medal in the centre. The soldier tends to be leaning further forwards in examples from the 50s onward, with his budenovka being under the T rather than the C. His foot is also turned out towards our left more, whereas wartime variants have his foot pointing towards us. The lettering I believe also changed slightly, although that may have just came with newer award regulations ( no longer wearing the red star at every moment)

What Guage might the leuchtpistole be. Because I might want to get one for reenactments.

Fantastic channel. Thankyou very much for your knowledge

I've got a dark green 1944 U.S. CR med kit from ebay with a 20 mm bullet hole clean right through the front right edge of it, with trailing threads, it missed hitting a small square glass vial of insectiside. by 1/4 inch.

What type of hood would have been used with them? The M43?

Thanx

My brother and i found one of these stuck in the rafters of the basememt of my grandparents house.

One of my ancestors was a teamster for polk's headquarters.

Is it safe breath through the original filter?

I was wondering if you could make a video on how to wear the bag or even forward me to a website where it could show me. I just bought a m2 from a gun show and the guy never showed me

I find that the P51 is a little more easier to use due to being a bit larger and so providing more leverage. Still an amazing invention. I never go anywhere without one

I have a numbers matching 605, not in great condition but interesting none the less. Thank you for posting the great info!

It's weird you know potential history has also say it we think that the us civil war with outdated concepts like infantry of the line but you also have this and also submarines things that actually blow up ( no pun intended) in the used we associated to " modern warfare " but they have them all the way back it's kinda funny how just a 50 years gap can make a huge difference now days before you needed twice that to actually see technological developments

Wehrmacht can opener

My great grandfather had this in ww2 and is missing a hand guard on the right. It took me so long to find info on this baynet

i have one exactly thesame manufacturer as yours, exactly thesame year and a condition so similiar i fr thought you where the previous owner of my bayonet. Ofcourse in noticed the serial number was different.

No hiss….

What is the meaning of letter "S" in the serial number? I have a bayonet 41asw 7235 s Congratulations for this instructive video. Pindamonhangaba-SP Brazil

Thank you for this amazing video sir

This video is a wealth of information, and you helped me on these when I was getting my feet wet on their understanding. One of the best sources on these on the internet. Currently have 3 matching examples, two of which have 70% of their original bluing. Fantastic items to collect. I'd say this one most likely left the factory in this configuration. Its very unlikely they'd be mismatched so close together by a random hand coincidentally. It was pretty common for left over stock to have been used in mass manufacturing.

YOU SHOULD HAVE EXPLAINED THE REASON IT WAS CALLED A "P-38" - IT'S BECAUSE IT TOOK 38 MOTIONS TO OPEN THE STANDARD MILITARY "CAN OF BEANS"

Would you really throw the Ketchum like a dart, or more like a lawn dart?

i got one from my grandpa, but no scabbard

I have this

Nice videi 🍻

From my understanding, Iwo Jima and Okinawa were the only battles that had 3 Marine Divisions take part in at once. For Iwo Jima, that is a lot of logistics for A LOT of Marines, and logistics needed to know who was landing where. The Marine Corps leadership had learned from previous battles such as Peleliu and Tarawa how chaotic the beaches could be on the first day; with a battalion/regiment's ammo/supplies being deposited where it wasn't supposed to be, in addition to Marines from different regiments overlapping and veering off from objectives. (The Army was able to wear shoulder patches on their jackets to distinguish them, the Marine Corps didn't). The Marine Corps still kind of operates this way. During big exercises where there is overlapping Battalions or Regiments, one unit will wear woodland cammies and the other desert cammies to tell who is who. The Army will just wear a patch.

Bet these things were so dangerous to carry around and use

Awesome. Love this type of stuff. Was given a inert api "trainer" 20mm by my grandfather he got as a gift from working for lockheed decades ago, and that started my fascinating with projectiles. I began messing with my red rider shortly there after, trying to find ways to make better "ammo" for it hahaha, eventually got into reloading, casting, milling various rounds as i aged for my firearms. Its a hobby i love. I love display artillery shells for some reason, sadly i only have one, as i havent been able to justify more. I still have that lil 20 trainer, attached to my "bullet board"(cartridge display) that i love showing folks, especially the cutaways or the "exploded" dioramas, always a favorite. Its funny how a series of meaningless events shapes out obsessions. Anyways, very much enjoyed the series, well done.

I have 100 pounds of these bullets. All 3 types. Any idea what they would be worth ?

Thank you.

People who are taught to use firearms for serious use (handguns or rifles) are taught to learn how to use the weapon 200%, that's two hundred percent. That's because in a first time panic situation they will forget 100% of what they were taught. That's just normal human response. Some call it buck feaver. The problem with this Italian bayonet is that it has TWO buttons on the handle, one to remove the bayonet from the rifle, the other to unfold it. In a panic situation it would be very easy to hit the wrong button, thereby removing the bayonet from the weapon instead of unfolding it. I don't know if this has ever happened, but I think it was a weakness of the design.
