Original era manufacture. German WWI S84/98 bayonet and scabbard, crown W17 on spine. Maker marked Gottlieb Hammesfahr, Solingen Foche. The blade is clean with minimal issues, no corrosion pitting. Original wooden grips, no cracks or chips just typical service wear. Dark steel patina to the guard and pommel. Steel patina finish to the scabbard, with shallow denting on the reverse. Original era leather frog but for a 98/05 bayonet, the belt loop has been trimmed on each side, and a clever reinforcing repair can be seen at the reverse of the stud opening.
