This is my small collection of KS-98's. Where there are the same maker's mark they are different ones, except for Elkhorn.

Top row:
Lion only over Solingen (Gustav Spitzer)
Lion in Circle with Gustav Spitzer's name around the lion.
Same as above, but with stag horn grip
Sleeping lion - C. Lutters & CIE
E. Pack @ Sohn

2nd Row:
Elkhorn
Klass
Unmarked with imitation staghorn
Wineglass withPS over it (Paul Seilheimer)
Elkhorn
Klass


3rd Row:
Unmarked
A. Evertz over Solingen
Elkhorn
ACS
Unmarked - This is supposed to be a Weimar bayonet. It has emblem (not glued on) is fixed directly over the top rivet and the bottom rivet is smooth to the crossguard (unlike others with a round top).
The letter opener is marked Steiner over Germany and on the pommel "JJH" and is 27mm long.

Hello,

very nice examples.

can you make better pics of the small one...down in the right?
i think...on the first sight... it is a private Dolchmesser out of the WW1 not a KS98.

Wow, a nice collection you have there. I am also a KS98 bayo collector. Could you post more pictures of your staghorn bayonets? I love them, I am looking for one as well and do not have one yet.

What is the emblem on the bayonet. I have never seen one with an emblem on the reverse side of the bayonet.

Nice collection. When I started collecting dress bayonets they were not a hot item. With the high prices of other TR daggers, dress bayonets are slowing catching on. They will never be in the same league as other TR daggers but they are affordable.
