GERMAN REPRO WWII NICKEL PLATED BAYONET

The German Repro WWII Nickel Plated Bayonet is a faithful reproduction of the K-98 Ausgehbajonett (dress or "walking-out" bayonet) historically purchased privately by Wehrmacht enlisted men and NCOs to wear with their dress uniforms. With its mirror-bright nickel-plated blade, Bakelite® grip scales, and zinc fittings, it captures the distinctive look of the original parade piece without the cost or fragility of a genuine antique — making it an easy sell to reenactors, militaria collectors, and WWII history buffs.

Unlike issue combat bayonets, the dress bayonet was a status item: a sign of service, worn off-duty and on formal occasions. This reproduction speaks directly to that collector niche. It displays beautifully on a wall, in a shadow box, or as part of a uniformed mannequin or living-history kit, and it pairs naturally with K-98 rifles, M36 tunics, and other Heer reproduction gear your customers may already own.
