CARL EICKHORN

Carl Eickhorn Long – Pommel Etch

This long type (Enlistedman’s) dress bayonet is etched only on the Hilt with Carl Eickhorn’s closed winged Eagle Pommel etch.
Pommel etches have been reproduced after the war and the Pre-45 examples are very difficult to find in the collecting community.  I personally have not seen a Pre-45 Pommel etch in many years until this example.  See pictures.  A chapter in my Revised/Updated Volume concerns Pommel etches and what to look for.  Many advanced collections do not have a real pre-45 Pommel etch included in their collections.

A hard to find etch in Mint condition!
The condition of the bayonet is very respectable, no missing plating and very few light runner marks.
Comes with:  Black Scabbard
