I'm a knife maker and seeing this brings joy to my heart. These fit handles suck to do. Even if you had used the milling machine, it is still a pain in the ass and you did an amazing job, be proud of it! Not blueing the screws was the right choice, it complements the bright walnut very nicely.

The screws to hold the grips in place while you tighten the nut is knurled and pressing to the wood to keep it from turning

Very nice, i got a Krag bayonet my brother bought me but he didnt know enough about bayonets because the tang behind the wood grips was sheared off, think its worth trying to make a replacement and weld it on? Itd be a lot of grinding and milling.

Can't hurt to try, it's not like you're modifying something very valuable if it's already broken. I have a prior video where I weld on a muzzle ring to a broken Krag bayonet. Less involved than a whole tang, but still worth it.

"Copilot The number 504 on the German SG 98 a.A. “Quillback” Bayonet likely represents a unit or weapon identification number, which was commonly used for inventory and tracking purposes within military forces. These numbers could be used to match bayonets to their corresponding rifles or to identify the specific unit or soldier to which they were issued. The markings “12 R.E.J.R.” and “504.” are stamped into the metal, indicating regimental information and possibly an issue number respectively. This historical artifact provides insight into military equipment and their marking systems during that era."

It takes much longer to dry but try raw linseed oil some time! Its a very natural look.

Very demanding and difficult work, in every part. You have done an excellent, really good repair of the handle. Thank you for the video.

Knipex pliers wrench. The smooth faces don't marr the parts. I really like them for pushing pins.
