Etched blade KS98

Anyone know how to date this bayonet?

About 1935/36. More important is the etching and is it authentic? It is, a good condition example of Eickhorn's #3219 motif, which is a general use design for all branches of service and fairly common.

Thank you, Anderson. Much appreciated.

The scabbard is mostly WKC production.
