I was looking for information on this bayonet. And also a reasonable value. Bayonets are cool but not my thing. Way to many factors involved.

It's a Danish M1915 bayonet complete with scabbard in decent shape, but missing the leather frog to attach it to the belt. These were adopted early in WW1 as the Danes sought to counter the German "tactic" (real or imagined) of charging into battle with their packs slung on their chests to increase standoff distance in case they took a bayonet. These were issued for both long rifles and carbines moving forward in place of the short 1889/93 bayonets

When they pop up on eBay, I tend to see them sell for between $175-225 based on condition.
