A German Fire Service (Feuerwehr) dress parade bayonet dating to the 1930s and carried during the World War II period. This example is a pure dress bayonet and does not have the facility to mount onto a rifle, as intended strictly for ceremonial and parade use. A particularly desirable feature of this piece is that it remains complete with its correct frog and Fire Service knot, making it a very attractive and display-ready example.

Blade

The blade is unmaker marked, as many Fire Service dress bayonets were. It remains unsharpened with a good tip and is in excellent overall condition. While not near mint, it presents extremely well and shows only light age-related marks. The bayonet retains its original buffer pad.

Hilt & Grips

Fitted with black chequered grips, both sides are in excellent condition and secured by domed rivets. The bayonet features the distinctive Fire Service crossguard, which immediately identifies it as a Feuerwehr pattern. This is a shorter-length dress bayonet, a size commonly encountered on Fire Service examples.

Scabbard

The black-painted steel scabbard retains the majority of its original finish. There is some honest paint loss to the front and reverse, consistent with age and handling, but the overall appearance remains very good. The bayonet slides into the scabbard perfectly and displays extremely well.

Frog

The brown leather frog is correct for this pattern and remains in excellent condition, with all stitching intact and the leather holding a strong, well-defined shape.

Overall

A very honest and well-preserved Fire Service dress bayonet, complete with its correct accessories. The combination of condition, correct knot, and frog makes this a particularly appealing example for display or collection.

Historical Note

During the World War II period, German Fire Service (Feuerwehr) personnel wore dress bayonets as part of their ceremonial and parade uniform. These bayonets were not intended for combat use but were worn during official functions, parades, and formal appearances, often privately purchased by the individual.
