**Scarce** German ‘S1914’ Sawback Bayonet and Scabbard. BAYO 558 - BAYO 558 This is a scarce ‘S1914’ Bayonet with sawback blade which is marked with both ‘Efurt’ on one side and ‘Gebr.Heller Marienthal’. Heller were makers of bayonets and machine gun parts, whereas ‘Erfurt’ was the State Arsenal so it would appear that the blade and hilt were made by ‘Heller’ and the bayonet finished at ‘Erfurt’. This was a fairly common occurrence. The ‘S1914’ bayonets are scarce as they were originally for export to South American but were pressed into service at the start at the start of WWI. This example is one of the few fitted with a flashguard for use with the ‘K98’ rifle. The scabbard *showing minor signs of age related use-see pics* is a later WWII issue. See ‘The German Bayonet’ by John Walter pages 74-76 & White and Watts item 280 pages 115 & 127. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 558. (Box 3) £395.00 |
