I've always wanted one of the WWI era Swiss M1914 pioneer/engineer sawback bayonets but cheap me refused to spend $300 plus for one. So when I ran across a bayonet collector's estate auction filled with goodies that included a half dozen M1914s I had to try to bring one home to me. Picked out a good example with the rarer leather scabbard. Managed to get it for a good price (of course!) and was shocked at low long the shipping box was. Damn this puppy is LONG. Two feet OAL with an 18"-19" blade.
Guarantee you could make short work of a tree with it. Pulled out my only other sawback, a WWI German 98/05, for comparison.
