This is a nice original K98 Bayonet Frog (Seitengewehrtragetasche). 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 frog is made of high quality blackened leather. The blackened leather frog is nicely marked with RB.Nr. 0/0676/0039 and dated 1943. Nice original example in very good condition!
