Nice Sawtooth 1898!!
Not a version I have in my collection,
But looking at these, I am seeing that both the leather type with metal throat and toe and also the all metal type of scabbard were used for this one.
Now I got these off of Bing,
Leather scabbard,
The all metal version,
Good luck on your search for a scabbard.

As a 1906 example it would have had a leather scabbard, these often didn't survive, and very hard to find. This is actually a Bavarian example, royal cypher for King Otto who reigned to 1913. I understand the steel scabbards were introduced in 1913.
Same opinion a nice bavarian proofed S98nAS, should be with leather scabbard fitted, the second picture by AZphil looks like wrong yugoslavian frog on them.
Thnak you all,for the usefull informations that you provided for me.Now I know that i need to look for a leather scabbard.
Hello,
You can look for a leather sheath and an auxiliary sheath made of sheet metal from the WW1.
I searched but I couldn't find one.
That's not surprizing.
Indeed Phil
