Anthony Carter in his book ‘German Bayonets, the models 98/02 & 98/05’, states that only a handful of bayonets with their trademark have been located, none of which have been dated. The sawback bayonets were probably made in 1916 and early 1917, before their manufacturing was suspended. It is contained in an Ersatz metal scabbard. The wooden slab grips are fully intact and are showing signs of age related use. The blade is in nice condition with slight staining due to age, J.H.Becker & Co is marked to one side. The scabbard has a few ‘impressions’ and a split to the bottom, but works as it should. This is an extremely rare bayonet and a must for the serious German bayonet collector. See Anthony Carter ‘German Bayonets, the models 98/02 & 98/05, page 65 for full details regarding J.H.Becker & Co. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 801.
