    TURK Bayonets:

    The First Turk bayonet is a Model 1890 cut down, the blade has been shortened and has an original leather frog and steel scabbard, probably used during the WWI Era

    The Second is a WWI Turkish "Ersatz" Mauser bayonet with steel handle & scabbard, very crude manufacture as seen in photo, looks handmade, the Turks would often use old bayonets and reuse the blades and make crude sheet metal grips riveted together like these type

    The last one is a later Turkish G1, FN Fal Bayonets all steel bayonet from the 1950's - 60's

    In the 1950's Germany purchased the the Belgian FAL rifle as the G1. Later surplused off to Turkey.

      I'll bet that first one would go with my Gewehr Commission rifle. Currently I have paired it with a Spanish Mauser rifle.
      Still yet another great post.
