Title 1884/98 model Mauser sawback bayonet
Nationality German
Period c 1915
Sold

Uncommon example with saw teeth officially ground off on reverse of blade, probably done in 1917 to comply with the Geneva Convention rules. No date, but Prussian acceptance stamps visible on pommel and blade marked 'F.Koeller & Co, Solingen'. Nice walnut grips to hilt.

I recieved the medal today and I am very pleased with the quality. It is in excellent condition, both the medal and the ribbon, for an original.
