*Rare* Nazi M98 Dress Bayonet & Frog Stamped R.F.V. Reich Finance Administration. 22296. - 22299
The Reich Finance Administration 'Reichfinazverwaltung’ (RFV), also called the Reich Tax Administration was a centralized administration in the German Reich from 1919 to 1945 that was responsible for the assessment and collection of taxes . At the top of the three-tier administrative system was the Reich Finance Ministry , followed by state finance offices (from 1937 called Oberfinanzpräsidien) and the tax offices. The highest superior was the Reich Minister of Finance. In the German Empire, the collection of taxes was primarily a matter for the federal states; each municipality decided independently on whether, how and when . In villages, levies and taxes were generally only paid personally once a year directly to the mayor, in cities to the treasurer. After the founding of the Weimar Republic, on August 6, 1919, the Committee of States approved the draft law for the establishment of the Reich Financial Administration. The Nazi M98 dress bayonet and scabbard, the dress sidearm for military and civilian uniformed formations was designated the M98 Dress Bayonet. This bayonet represented a stylised form of the S. 84/98 bayonet purchased by the individual for wear with the walkout dress uniform and was worn by the mainly non-commissioned officers and enlisted personnel. This rare early dress bayonet has a rifle mortise and push button release. This is the long version with a 10 ¼ “blade which carries the makers logo of “Paul Weyersberg & Co Solingen" (The Paul Weyersberg & Co. Waffenfabrik company was founded in 1840. It registered with the Solingen chamber of commerce on February 1, 1921. Weyersberg manufactured: cutlery, knives and swords. Between the two world wars they continued to manufacture edged weapons. Come the Third Reich era, Weyersberg became one of the largest suppliers of edged weapons in Germany. etched on the ricasso). The crossguard has the initials clearly stamped ‘R.F.V.’ of the Reich Finance Administration which is covered above. The polished steel blade is in excellent condition. The grips are chequered and secured with two rivets. It has a metal scabbard with lozenge shaped frog stud. The frog is in good order with all stitching and studs secure.

*Near Mint & Complete* Sudanese Contract German AR10 Bayonet *And Combination Tool*. 22260. - 22260
The Sudanese model rifle was the first AR10 with a bayonet which was designed for the rifle. In 1958 the Sudanese Military contracted with Samuel Cummings company Interarmco, to supply 2,508 AR-10 Battle Rifles. 2,500 standard rifles and 8 adapted to mount optical sights as sniper rifles. One of the requirements for the Sudanese rifles were that they were to be able to mount bayonets, something the AR-10 did not have a capability to do in its then current form. This inability to mount a bayonet was overcome by a rather simple and ingenious addition to the rifle. A cast and machined sleeve was fitted over the barrel between front sight base/gas block and the flash hider. This was pinned to the barrel just forward of the front sight base/gas block. It had machined into the underside of the bayonet adaptor a longitudinal rail to which the bayonet could be attached. The Sudanese contract AR-10 bayonet has a more symmetrical blade than that of the SG-42 and has no ‘blood groove’ (properly known as a fuller) which hints at the fact that it is seen more of a utility knife than as a ‘cut and thrust’ fighting knife/bayonet. It has been established that the SG-42 was manufactured by Waffenfabrik Carl Eickhorn in Solingen, Germany (determined by its cof marking / WaA19 inspection code), whereas the toolkit was made by Robert Klaas of Solingen (inspection code: ltk). Inside the bayonet’s grip are a number of tools which detach from the grip and can be used for rifle maintenance. The tools also include a bottle opener and a corkscrew. In regard to the AR-10 Sudanese bayonet, the Eickhorn company does not deny being the manufacturer of the Sudanese contract bayonet, they simply cannot confirm that they were the maker, since all relevant factory records have been lost. In the Dutch AR-10 archives, Interarmco (i.e. Samuel Cummings) does not disclose the name of the manufacturer, but refers only (in the pertinent correspondence with A.I.) to “the Solingen manufacturer” of this knife-bayonet for the Sudanese contract. The combination tool in the centre folds up and snaps into the handles of the bayonet. A cover swivels out of the way to expose a chamber for the ‘worm’. When the corkscrew is pulled out, the cover is swivelled back, and a notch engages with the worm to lock it in place. Blades of issued bayonets are marked with the serial number on one side of the ricasso ‘3009’ in this case and with ‘Interarmco Reg. Pat. Germany’ to the other side. It is contained in its original plastic scabbard with pressed steel belt loop. This scarce bayonet with even scarcer toolkit is in near perfect condition. The price includes UK delivery. 22260.

This example was manufactured by ‘Luneschloss Solingen’ (The Peter Daniel Lüneschloss Waffen-Fabrik company was founded in 1810. It originally began as a cutlery manufacturer but started the production of edged weapons in 1848. They marketed their own etched and engraved: weapons, cutlery and tableware.
