The S (Seitengewehr, meaning sidearm) 1914 (the pattern) bayonet was an interim design and was in effect an early type of ersatz bayonet, being produced by numerous private, non-military makers in order to make up the German army's shortfall. This is a first pattern S14 bayonet is stamped on the ricasso with a stylised G in a circle & SD (the trademark logo for Lucian Gottscho), a Berlin based patent holder and designer who sub-contracted the production of these bayonets during early, chaotic World War I.

The Gottscho SD variation is having been manufactured specifically for the Kingdom of Württemberg military forces. The ricasso is stamped 593 n one side (bayonet number) and on the other side I.E.M.G.K.XIII.AR (I Ersatz-Maschinengewehr-Kompanie, XIII. Armeekorps (1st Machine Gun Company, 13th (Royal Württemberg) Army Corps)). The spine of the blade is stamped with a crown over the date acceptance stamp near to the hilt. The 302mm single-edged blade is bright and has a full fuller on both spine terminating in a spear point.
