A bayonet (from French "baonnette") is a knife- or dagger-shaped weapon designed to fit on or over the muzzle of a rifle or similar weapon. It is a close combat weapon. The evolution of the bayonet can be traced to a certain extent to a fortuitous accident. The bayonet had a round handle that fit directly into the musket barrel. This naturally prevented the gun from being fired. Many socket bayonets were triangular in cross-section in order to provide sideways stability of the blade without much increase in weight. This design of bayonet did not include a handle to use the blade apart from the gun.
The French bayonets often have a solid brass pommel with integral latching mechanism (push-buttonspring-steel). The grips are wooden and the crossguard of steel with upper guard being the muzzle-ring, lower guard forming a hooked "blade-breaker" quillon. The scabbards are usually blued sheet-rolled steel, semi-oval, tubular, with a ball finial. The blades are of steel and usually marked on the back-edge (opposite the bottom cutting edge) with the arsenal, month, and year of manufacture.
The French bayonets saw the great battlefields of the glorious wars. The bayonets were used effectively by the disciplined French infantry, who were highly trained in its use both as a firearm and with the bayonet fitted, as a thrusting weapon at close quarters. The speciality of the French bayonets was functional lock mechanism and accurate detailing

The German Army referred to as the Heer, of World War II rose from the ranks of the Reichswehr Army formed as a result of the Versailles Treaty signed in 1921. Both these formations used steel helmets that were of the older World War I types consisting of "ear cut-out" models. Helmets during this time, were lightweight and made of aluminum. They were used for parade and ceremonial occasions but not worn in the field.
Painting of the helmets was almost always done by hand and brush. The process of upgrading the helmets generally involved repainting the helmet with field gray paint both inside and out. Helmets were painted a light field green color using smooth paint inside and out. Preferred helmets often included those that were void of the large interior chinstrap lugs as the lack of large lugs allowed the helmets to better accommodate the newer liner and chinstrap. Almost every helmet received a single decal which was consistent with regulations held between 1940 and 1943.
The "Ear Cut-Out" helmets have the upward dip along the sides of the helmet shell. They are often referred to as the "cavalry", "artillery", or "telephone talker's" helmet owing to their general appearance and popularity among men serving in these roles. This type of helmet was created as a result of the requests for a helmet that allowed for better hearing in the trenches. Like many transitional helmets, some were stored and later repainted with rough texture paint and then reissued to Wehrmacht troops in 1940. These German helmets are ideal for military enthusiasts, collectors or living history re-enactors.
Armor of the Middle Ages wore a variety of different german helmets. While the style varied from region to region the function of medieval german helmets was always the same. Now a days armor german helmet makes a great home decoration and each is full size and can be worn.
