My neighbor knows I do some modest Smithing & machine work, & on a few rare occasions some restorations.
So today he comes running across the street asking me to take a look at a couple bayonets & a sword that his grand father brought back from WWII.
They looked in fairly good condition but the ceremonial sword looked like someone tried to a whack at something with it.
I am the furthest from being a blade expert.
So where do I start on identifying what my neighbor has?

All 3 look to be German in origin & the Sword has the 2" swastika engraved on the hilt.

Thanks in Advance for any help.

Pictures are mandatory to identify Nazi era edged weapons.

Yeah. You have hunks of steel unless we can see some pics
