WWII German Army Dress ‘KS98’ Bayonet and Scabbard with Frog and Officers Dress Knot. BAYO 6278. - BAYO 6278
In Germany, army officers typically wore swords as a sign of their rank while conducting formal activities in the public view. Beginning in the last part of the 19th century, some German NCOs and enlisted soldiers, when dressed for “walking out” (leaving the barracks for non-duty activities such as going on leave) or while wearing formal parade uniforms, began to sport brass or wood handled “dress” bayonets, decorated with coloured tassels designating their individual units. This German ‘walking out’ or Parade bayonet has a bright Nickel plated hilt with ‘Birds head’ pommel, with functioning bayonet catch, and cross-guard with swept-forward quillon. The black Bakelite grips are held by two dome head plated rivets. An excellent 246 mm single edged, single fullered nickel plated blade (397mm overall length), Ricasso marked with the maker ‘A. Evertrz Solingen’, Complete in black Japanned steel scabbard which has some age related marks to it. The original frog comes with a green and silver thread Dress Knot/Portepee which are both in good used condition. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 6278.

This is a Model 1885 Guedes bayonet, often referred to as the Kropatschek bayonet & is based on the Austrian M1873 bayonet. These bayonets are not common in the collector's market. These bayonets were originally intended for the Guedes-Castro rifle but when Portugal decided to adopt the 8mm Kropatschek bolt action rifle, the bayonet was used instead of the new rifle (see Brayley 'An Illustrated History Of Bayonets' pages 182 & 183). The fullered blade is 18 ½” length and measures 23 ½” overall. The blade has just staining consistent with age. There is a small inspection mark on the blade and ‘VV560’ on the cross guard which has the correct muzzle ring. Its slab wood grips are secure and have just bumps and bruises to be expected. The steel pommel has the correct bayonet release button which functions correctly. The steel scabbard has a frog bar & ball end and ‘U429’ imprinted. There are a few service indents to the rear of the scabbard but they do not affect its operation. The price includes UK postage. BAYO 6274.
