German WW1 M1898 Sawback Pioneer Bayonet

Offered for sale is a very rare German World War I Model 1898 sawback bayonet, complete with its metal scabbard.

Sawback (sawtooth) bayonets were produced in limited quantities and issued primarily to pioneer and engineer units, making them among the most desirable variants of WWI German bayonets.

The blade retains its correct sawback spine with teeth intact and shows honest age-related wear and patina consistent with WWI service. No signs of modern alteration or restoration observed. The hilt and fittings are solid and well-preserved for its age. The metal scabbard is included and shows matching period wear.

All details are shown clearly in the photographs, which form an important part of the description. The item is offered as-is, exactly as pictured.

A highly collectible and scarce example of WWI German edged weapons, suitable for an advanced militaria collection.
