It's a German WW2 period S84/98 combat bayonet. Can't comment on authenticity but it looks good to me. It's unmatching though, the scabbard is made by Coppel GMBH (S/173) while the rest is made by Berg & Co (S/242).

Thank you for the prompt reply Tobias. Great information!

I don't see it here in the images, but I strongly suspect that there are two digits on the back edge of the bayonet's blade that indicate the year it was manufactured. Also thinking that the Bakelite grip plates may be replacements. PS: S/242 originally the number code for Solinger Axt u. Hauerwork, later it was renamed as indicated becoming Berg & Co. Best Regards, Fred

Hello,
An original German bayonet and scabbard. Although not matching in numbers, they are both original parts in my opinion. Enjoy the hobby! Some great knowledge in this forum!

S/242 should be dated on spine of blade near crossguard, 36 or 37, grips were replaced as normally early production should be wood not bakelit material.

Hi,
The scabbard and S84 / 98 are original but do not match.
A revision from the period after 1945 is not recognizable.
The condition is `heavily used´
