Recent Find K98 Bayonet Luftwaffe Personalized. I found this last week, appears to be Luftwaffe as it appears to have a Luft Eagle? Helmet is on the other side. Great looking blade.

Is there a maker Navybean? Yes, it is a private purchase "In Rememberance of My Time in Service" short KS98 bayonet for the Luftwaffe. The early "droop tail" Luftwaffe eagle dates it to pre-war and the short model was manufactured for NCOs. The short models are harder to find.

 

Congratulations!

Your bayonet is a Klass Nr.208 "Eigentums-Seitengewehr" 20cm Klinge according to their catalog. The price at the factory was RM4.30 without shipping. It is worth a bit more now as second hand goods.

 

I hope this is helpful.

Condition is good, I see these bring pretty good money. But the prices are all over the place

 

Yeah this is the first one I have had. I have not seen a similar piece locally anyway
