Early K98 bayonet

**therifleman** · 04-28-2009, 02:28 AM

Hey guys, Heres a K98 bayonet I've had for a while. Unfortunately the scabbard and sheath do not match which kind of degrades the value, but a cool item none the less. Definetely shows signs of use. Any idea on when it made?

The G codes were produced in 1935.

Hello,
your bayonet was produced in 1935 (letter G) by : Elite-Diamantwerk, Siegmar-Schönau bei Chemnitz (code S/185)

The scabbard was produced in 1934 (letter K) by : Berg & Co., Solingen-Ohligs (code S/242).

That's a nice well used 84/98 bayonet.
congrats
Thanks

Congratulation You got a early piece, the only minus is sharpening of blade. the serial number on scabbard is without letter? Best regards,Andy
