German Parade Bayonet Maker?

[Alex_Zues]

I was wondering if someone could tell me what bayonet maker's stamp this is. I have no idea of it's value or anything beyond that it seems to be a German parade bayonet.

I tried google searches, but all I come up with are pictures of Eichkorn and Solingen stamps, which it doesn't match.
Thanks for any useful input.

Really? do they have more than one stamp? It didn't look like their other markings, but I'm no expert

Yes, I believe there were multiple variations, but as an example, here's one with the same mark as yours. These guys typically know their stuff.

The German army allowed their soldiers to carry a side arm when on leave from the barracks. I think the bayonet is a private purchase walking out side arm.
