You probably don't own a Swiss Stgw. 57 rifle, but it's OK! Sharpen one of these bayonets and you have a fine tool for poking, prying, cutting, and dicing - all scenarios you run into in the kitchen!
Please note that these are sharpened at the factory, and they indeed are double-edged, which may limit importing them. If bayonets or double-edged blades are illegal in your country, you may end up in all kinds of shit for importing these.
Swiss militaria provides a rare combination of being made with phenomenal quality and having not being used in war since 1815, except a little bit in the 1940s. These bayonets are from the 50s or later and were manufactured about as long as the rifle itself.
The design is rather traditional with double edges and a blade length of 24 cm (~9.5"). The handle is black plastic and ribbed for your pleasure to prevent your hand from slipping when wet: in close combat, wet hands are a rule because of having your hands in your pants or drenching in the blood of your enemies.
The frog is olive green rubber or brown leather, depending on what we get. We separate these so you can choose.
Used but in serviceable condition. The tip of the blade might have seen better days on some of the bayonets, as the most common actual use of a bayonet is poking the ground when practicing removal of land mines.
