K98k bayonets.
 

I thought we should start a thread on matching K98k bayonets. Please add what you have. Here are a few of my favorites. I like the late war ones.

A 44asw with wooden grips.

44asw with Bakelite grips.

44asw with phosphated bayonet and scabbard....and rivets instead of grip screws.

And my favorite of the 44s is this 44fnj with blued bayonet and phosphated scabbard.

And for a little comparision for pre-war vs late war, a superb quality 1938 made by Gebruder Heller. The quality of the bluing and bakelite is superb.

An overall view of the 5 I have presented so far.

:: "Bonderized":: :D

Nothing special here in comparison to Willi's bayonetsthumbsup,but anyway as a non-"weapon" collector, I've got a few...here you go.

starting from above, matching, serialnbr: 1547 f, dated 44, maker : cvl. Frog is unmarked but original to the bayonet.

the middle one is mismatched, although I got it like that from a resistance-veteran in my area. Nbr 5107 g and scabbard nbr 1010, maker : WKC. original marked frog.

The third one is matching also, nbrs : 4580 a, maker : J.Sch. + it's original unmarked frog.

All have wooden grips.

Cheers
