Title 1884/98 model Mauser sawback bayonet

Period c 1915

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.

Just letting you know that the whistle arrived here this morning safe and sound. Your excellent packaging was still totally intact and it took me all of five minutes to break into it to see my purchase. I am very pleased, it is a great whistle.

I am more and more pleased with the sword, and am wondering whether to do an article on it...
