K98 Bayonet by JWN 42
A Wehrmacht Bajonett fur K98 by Manufacture Nationale (Staatliche Waffenfabrik) Chatellerault in France. The K98 Bayonet was designed for the German Wehrmacht standard service Karabiner 98 kurz (7.92x57mm Mauser cartridge) bolt-action rifle - 1935. The single edged, single fullered, blued blade on this one look great! The blued panels continue to have a nice and dark finish. The fit is perfect. It is maker marked and dated "JWH" to the reverse, and "6566" (serial/distribution number) to the obverse and "42" to the spine. The blade rates a solid NM. It shows the commonly seen surface scratches from the runners (mostly towards the tip). The steel based, dent-free, black anodized scabbard looks good. It is marked matching the blade perfectly. The single side screw remains intact. The scabbard sits securely up against the hilt. The hilt looks great! The brown bakelite grip plates are in great condition! They show light wear marks but no chips, cracks or splits! The button continues to work well. This piece is profusely inspection stamped as one would expect. This one comes with a worn 1941 dated frog.
