Hello Eric, it looks good ,best regards,Andy

Thanks for the reply Andy,I wasnt sure if the waA218 marking was correct,the grips were numbered on some early bayonets I have had,didnt know if these should be.Is this a real common maker,any idea of value?

S/185 is the early code for Elite-Diamantwerk, not the most prolific maker but not the scarcest either. That's a nice one too. Well done.

Thanks!Paid 100.00,I have a 1937 Erma k98 it will look good on!
