[dutchdrummer]

Anyone here know what type of bayo this is and the approx. value? The scabbard is leather covered. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks - Rich

S 98

Hi Rich,

Looks like an S 98 to me. Have a look at this thread of mine and if it's the same then that's what it is.

Can you show a picture or two of the scabbard fittings and any maker marks etc. on the blade?

Regards,

Thanks for the info, Stu. I don't have the bayo in hand, just these pics that the seller sent me. He wants $275 for it. I've done a little quick research and that seems about the going rate for these. I think the maker might be WKC.

No more than that...IMHO

Hi again,

I agree...looks like a WKC and as it's the nA not the aA I'd say 275 was tops. Here is one to compare with on a dealer site.

It is an S98 and it looks great.I have a similar one,but not in this mint condition.Is the WKC logo the only mark on the bayonet?
