This is a great example of the M1884/98 Bayonet for the Mauser K98. This particular example was made by E.u.F Hörster, indicated by the “..4ASW” at the base of the blade. This represents the year of production (1944) and the maker’s mark. On the reverse of the blade is the serial number “3424 n”.
The scabbard features the markings “9177...” and “42 CVL. This scabbard was therefore made by WKC in 1942. The letter code markings on the blade and scabbard were customary from 1940-1945.
