K98 Combat Bayonet & Frog
Matching K98 Combat Bayonet with Frog (Seitengewehr 98K mit Seitengewehrtasche). The K98 bayonet was a standard issue item and was accompanied by a bayonet frog to be worn on the reverse left side of the load carrying waist belt. The K98 bayonet remained the standard issue bayonet through-out the war with minor manufacturing variations. The bayonet and scabberd are nicely maker marked and dated with '41ffc' indicating production by the company of 'Friedrich Herder & Sohn' from Solingen in 1941. The serial-numbers are almost matching, they are only 7 numbers apart and marked '4114' and '4121'.The blade is in very good condition, the bayonet is having bakelite grips. The bayonet comes with its original leather frog as found, the frog is maker marked and looks to be dated 1941. Nice original bayonet in good used condition!
