Title K98 Mauser bayonet
Nationality German
Period c 1939
Sold

This bayonet is the classic Third Reich armed forces example, dated 1939 on the scabbard and on the back of the blade, marked for Carl Eickhorn, and with matching numbers to scabbard and blade. This was developed from the S84/98, which first made an appearance in Germany in 1915 as a wooden hilted example.

There is some minor scarring to the surface of the blade, but this has most of its blue finish intact and there are trace elements of original finish to the scabbard and hilt. Grips are bakelite.

Wanted to let you know the items arrived today. Great job on the packing. Too often I buy very expensive and irreplaceable items from the UK and they get sent barely packed to protect them from the various postal services - appreciate you going the extra mile to insure it arrived in the shape it left. Thanks again, look forward to doing business with you in the future. Items were very nice, exactly as offered.
