Re: butcher knife bayonet Seitengewehr 98/05
Maker = Fichtel & Sachs.
I would guess that the grip replacement was done by a GI (possibly during/after WW2) - I've seen others.
It would not have been done by the German soldier who was issued it - I suspect he would have been in serious trouble for damaging army property.

I agree with Ritchie B, this type of vandalism would not of been tolerated within the Imperial Army, ....done post war, by whom and for whom we shall probably never know.

Richie has nailed it.
I rather like it, as it has a certain period charm of mid 1940's "kitsch".
Cheers, Ade.
