sawback bayonet

The bayonet is a German S98/05 n/A that has been cutdown by the Turks. They are fairly common and can be easily found on eBay and other places in both standard blades and sawbacks.

Thanks for the info, very interesting.

Tons of these here in Afghanistan. The Turks cut down every variation the Germans gave them during the First War, models including standard flatback, and sawback, and most of the ersatz models. Sort of a seperate collector's niche in themselves, although readily available, and not terribly valuable(yet)
Cheers,
