E. Pack & Sohne Nazi M98 Dress Bayonet By E. Pack & Sohne & Scabbard Bayonets

Nazi M98 Dress Bayonet By E. Pack & Sohne & Scabbard - BAYO 625

This is an early Nazi M98 dress bayonet and scabbard. The dress sidearm for military and civilian uniformed formations was designated the M98 Dress Bayonet. This bayonet represented a stylised form of the S. 84/98 bayonet purchased by the individual for wear with the walkout dress uniform and was worn by the mainly non-commissioned officers and enlisted personnel. This early dress bayonet has a rifle mortise and a dummy push button release. Usually there is some green felt in the rifle mortise but this is missing. This is the long version with a 9 3/4" blade which carries the makers logo of E. Pack & Sohne. The bayonet has "E. Pack & Sohne Solingen" etched on the ricasso together with their Siegfried Waffen logo. This is a scarcer variant of their trademark. The polished steel blade is in excellent condition. The plastic grips are chequered and secured with two screw bolts. The scabbard is the standard black gloss painted version, (see 'German Clamshells' book pages 15-16 by Gary L. Walker & R.J. Weinand). The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 625
