    Just to tell you most of those flashlights, the reason why blue isn’t very bright, is because most of the time they were used for signaling traffic and stuff and high commanding officers, would have them as so as engineers too, but high commanding officers would have them to use them for maps And engineers would use them to obviously see around things and stop oncoming traffic and etc.

      @worldwarboy5619 ปีที่แล้ว

      I tried to do a bit of research for you so I hope this helps, I was able to find a few K98 bayonets with the serial number being "9821" like you said is marked on yours, and here's what I found: German K98 bayonet with the serial number 9821 were produced 1943, and were made by E.&F. Hörster. If my research is correct then there should also be a "VV" stamp, as well as a "43 asw" stamp somewhere on the bayonet scabbard or the bayonet itself. If the stamps aren't matching then it's very possible that the bayonet and scabbard somehow got mismatched over the years, possible even during the war. I hope this little bit of information I've provided has helped in someway, and if you have any other questions please feel free to ask! I'd be more than happy to help out in any way possible!

      Probably from years and years of being removed and put back into the sheath is my guess, it kinda rubs on the sharp side of the blade, also after the war alot of people used them for everyday things which would over time dull them. Although I have no idea why they wouldn't sharpen it 🤷

    @marcuskomorowski3999 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi. Nice review. I necro this just in case you still don't know about the detail regarding the slot at the bottom side (bulb in lower position, DAIMON brand name readable), where just a small amount of light emits through. In early WWII that slot (so called "Tarnlicht") was used as a "concealed" light, usually using the red filter added, for reading maps below at night in order to prevent enemy snipers from picking off higher ranked soldiers while they were briefing their combat groups. The leather strap of the lamp got usually attached to two buttons of the german field jacket, so it emitted light horizontally through the main lens as soon as turned on. To prevent enemies from spotting that light on open field the middle filter screen was put in position before (the bulb) to shut it, and let only light shine through the slot downwards from the bottom of the lamp onto a map held by hand, while shown to others around. Some later distributed lamps had special lamp covers or solid metal "filter" plates, instead of the blue filter, restricting the light for the same usage, afaik... A ton of these lamps are still in use today in a plethora of variations, by some armies, even in the NATO. I guess because of the simplicity of the construction and the ease of use and maintain. They are pretty easy upgraded by exchanging the bulb by a high power LED and the usage of a AAA-battery adapter. Looks oldscool, works like a charm. Cheers from Germany, Red Katipo.
