Hi Lars thanks for the reply. I looked up the production control number on the guard (72172) which dates it to 2nd quarter of 1971. Thanks

Thanks for the year of manufacture.

Since you are looking to sell, I think most people would like to know what price you have in mind for it.

1971, original sheath, the etching is still in decent shape...

Hi thank you, yes just some scratches and the tip is slightly bent to one side. Forgot to mention that I also have the leather sheath. Was thinking around £250-300, not sure of the logistics though being in the UK, Cheers

Just a quick conversion for us on this side of the pond...

£250 is about $324.80

£300 is about $389.76

Shipping is going to need to be a bit higher than a 'normal' shipment within the states.  My guess is $30-35 minimum.

argh...

Shipping might be more than I thought.  An 1878 Swiss bayonet (≈24" long) from Germany, costs $57.50 to ship here.

This is certainly larger, and probably weighs a touch more, but costs significantly more to ship as well.
