As stated before I want to start collecting again. Here’s my first addition to my back to basics collecting. I picked up this gem last week, and I’m a bit excited to collect a few more specimens. I’ve always liked the K98 bayonet for their sleek design, and there practical aspects. This one is a early war example with matching scabbard and blade 1940 dated. The frog is starting to dry rot a titch above the handle area.
