Could anyone give me any information on this bayonet?

Non matching number K98k bajo, produced by Weyersberg and Kirschbaum Company in Solingen.
Interesting bayonet.
Production ceased in 1918 after the war.
WKC made some I think in 1927 and 1928 for the Weimar Government. Quite rare I think although I don't know how many were made.
As sated above the scabbard is a mismatch - originally issued with un-marked scabbard IIRC.
There is also a Weimar era unit marking on the crossguard - 2nd Infantry Regiment.
Very nice piece of first SG84/98 made for Reichswehr, is the first III. modell, made in 1927-30 period, the unit is 11 IR, 2 company, with missmatch Holler 1940 scabbard.
