WW2 1944 Dated German K98 Combat Bayonet by Alexander Coppel, Solingen,generally good example of a combat bayonet with two piece red bakelite grips, steel pommel and housed in the steel scabbard with matching numbers to the blade, ‘9042 h’. Attached to the scabbard is original leather bayonet frog which has very feint makers mark and what appears to be 1944 date. Blade also stamped ’44 fnj’ which is the date 1944 and makers code for Alexander Coppel, Solingen. Much of the original finish remains to the blade. Some surface rusting to the exterior, but this would probably clean off.
