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 maker marked by the company of 'Franz Brehme' from Walsrode and dated 1942. Nice original example in very good condition!
