The pommel area of the recess on S98/05 has no purpose, because behind the locking lug. The full rifle slot 3cm is not changed in any way for other rifle, same as the locking lenght of bayonet was not changed. I tried to fit this 98/05 bayonet on a Mannlicher M95 rifle and it is possible. Since it is not a ring, it only has an "exhibition" character. Perhaps for airport guard duty with Manllicher rifles. I saw another RLM similarly modified On 30/03/2023 at 16:03, AndyBsk said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyBsk Posted 1 April , 2023 Share Posted 1 April , 2023 Has nothing to do with Mannlichers, the adapter of Mannlicher is different so it would be loosy and could be not used even as parade because lenght of S98/05 is total different to M95 bayonet, i assume its only step to better or easier add on Mauser rifle adapter.

AndyBsk Posted 11 April , 2023 Share Posted 11 April , 2023 S98/05aA in Extra configuration, looks ok, even not in extra well condition. Some scratched the blade by cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When collecting rare or unusual variations I follow Andreas - take an example as it comes up! That said, for me, living in Turkey with a low salary and officially 55% inflation (down from an official 84%), I unfortunately have to take what there is as I simply cannot afford pristine examples of WW1 artefacts. My intention is always to sell some poor examples when a better one come along. Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dok Posted 11 April , 2023 Share Posted 11 April , 2023 (edited) Julian hello! When I started collecting a long time ago, I bought things that were not in very good condition. Later I became more demanding. Everything I didn't like was sold. Like Andreas, I have a dream to collect all 98/05 meat producers and their combinations. I would say that 80% of this dream came true for me. Now I only buy things that I like, and long ago I gave up buying dead bayonets, even with the brand of the manufacturer, which I do not have. But my entire collection is super items that give me aesthetic and moral pleasure. Here is the latest butcher 98/05 nAS, which was bought a week ago for 450 e. Expensive, but I think that in this condition you will not find such an item anywhere else. As for the Butcher's dress 98/05, it is found on various trading floors with periodic regularity. They are not rare. Edited 11 April , 2023 by Dok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trajan Posted 11 April , 2023 Share Posted 11 April , 2023 Yes, a very nice one! I wish I could properly subscribe to the best-only side of collecting, but what turns up here is usually not that good and Turkish law forbids the import of bayonets - Customs X-Ray all parcels that come into the country. I have managed to bring back in my bags some good ones, but now they even X-Ray bags on arrival at airports... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyBsk Posted 11 April , 2023 Share Posted 11 April , 2023 its allways a condition/price comparation, i am personally same opinion like Julian, by scarce or rare maker or variation i would buy the piece even worser condition and later prove to replace by better one. 450€ is expensive price, even it would be in excellent condition.Not all bayonet collectors have similar ammounts for buying items.

Yes, that's my approach too. I have, e.g., two not particularly good Turkish M.1915's, but they will hold and suit my collection and research purposes until a better one comes along at a price I can afford!

But I understand that you don't care what state the item is in. DOK, It sounded strange. It's like you're saying I'll settle for spoiled food. I took the bayonet without being fully acquainted with its condition. It wasn't cheap, but money is just money. As others have written. I won't regret it when the better one comes along to replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Scheuchzer Posted 11 April , 2023 Author Share Posted 11 April , 2023 (edited) I had to buy a convolute of 4 bayonets 98/05 for one piece. I will add their photos. I don't know if they will stay in my collection. I haven't made up my mind yet about collecting bayonets by year.

Dok Posted 11 April , 2023 Share Posted 11 April , 2023 Why not. I'm always looking for items that aren't in Carter's book. For example, Ernst Busch Solingen - 17 is not specified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
