PLEASE HELP ID - German WW2 bayonet?

[David Skidmore]

hi i was wondering if anyone has ever seen a German bayonet like this before. the markings are throwing me off however i know both are german. does anyone have any idea the bayonet model name?

any help would be great

[davejb]

The makers name is WKC as far as i can tell judging by the Knights helmet , and it looks like a K98 variation

[David Skidmore]

that is what i thought however the barrel hole and guard do not match any K98 i have ever seen. the first marking is also WKC however i believe it is from the early 1800s combined with the more modern knight i am just totally lost as to what it really is.

Is there anymore markings?

Post a picture of the whole bayonet and tell us how long it is.

Possiblity
German export M84/98, but not sure, could help if more markings or picture of the handle to

[zwerge]

It COULD be a S 71/84, is the muzzle ring ID 17.1mm or 0.672 inches ?

It would be really helpful for us to id if we can have full pictures of item as well. At the moment I'll double zwerge's opinion looks like it might be 71/84

This is something like seeing a Ford emblem on a piece of car and asking " what year is it ".
