This is only the SECOND one of these I've ever been able to scare up in 40 years of collecting. It's mounted with an Eickhorn '98 bayonet w/ mis-matched scabbard, however it's just as found and as it came stateside with the vet. Shows nice honest wear, but the frog is in nice condition w/ no missing thread and a decent makers mark (which won't photograph worth a damn, but it's there). From my understanding these were only in production as a prototype for a short period in 1941 only. A quick snap or two below...Wish it were matching, but it is what it is, and I'm just happy to have found it.
