Two K98 bayonets

[JBGracing]

Here are a couple of k98 bayonets.

The first is a near mint Elite Diamant. Does anyone know when they switched over to the "i" in 1941. I have seen one with the serial number in the low 2000 range with Elite Diamant still written out. Mine is 7654. It is dated 41 on the spine.

The second one

The second is matching. It is not as good of condition, but the serial number was desireable(to some, not neccessarily me). It is a 41 cqh with the serial number 666. Does anyone have any others with this serial number?

And about the 41cqh, condition is not that bad. It's very difficult to get 40-42 Clemen&Jung in very good condition. Finish is probably not as good as other manufacturers, and they didn't make it trough time as well as most other manufacturers (Same for Elite Diamant and J.Sch, hard to get in good condition).
