RARE 1945 GERMAN MAUSER K98 BAYONET & SCABBARD For Sale

This is an very rare, 1945 dated, WWII German Mauser K98, (SG 84/98),bayonet and scabbard.This bayonet & scabbard have matching numbers (4232)and manufactures marks (45 crs) and are innew, unissued, unused condition.They were produced in 1945 by Paul Weyersberg & Cie Waffenfabrik (CRS), in Solingen, Germany. Both the bayonet & scabbard are typical of late war manufacture with rough grindmarks and poor finishing. The scabbard frog stud is slightly misaligned and the internal chape appears to have been hammered into place on one side at the throat. The exterior finish on both items seems to be a very thin acid or phosphate wash. The bayonet has various rough grind marks, rough bakelite grips secured by screw bolts.The only other visible marking is a Waffenamt proof mark on the ball of the scabbard, eagle over WaA519 (?).

The bayonets produced in the last days of WWII in 1945 are very rare. This bayonet scabbard are in virtually new condition as found at the end of the war. There are no noticeable marks from handling or storage. It would be very difficult to find a much nicer example of this rare bayonet.
