Original Imperial German WWI M1898/05 Short Dress Bayonet with Scabbard by WKC Crimean War the unit lost eleven enlistedOriginal Item. Only One Available. This is a very nice Nickel Plated "Parade" or "Walking Out" example of the M1898 05 Bayonet which has had the blade cut down, with the scabbard being similarly cut down. This was done almost professionally, with the blade looking as if it left the factory this way, with only a bit of the nickel plating being absent. The bayonet has very fine nickel plated hilt mounts, though there is plating flaking and oxidation.
