    To my bidders: For years I have done business on eBay using the name: gpstorageco*. The items I will be selling from this point on are being sold from my estate and from the estates of friends and relatives.
    This WWI German 98/05 "Butcher Blade" Bayonet belonged to a friend of mine who recently passed away. He set aside vintage military items over the years. This blade was on display with a WWI era German rifle.
    This WWI era German 98/05 "Butcher Blade" Bayonet is clean overall (see photos). The bayonet's long 14.5 inch fullered blade is super clean and appears to have been reworked from a sawback (sawtooth area removed) and re-issued after WWI (see photos). The cutting edge remains unsharpened and doesn't have much of a sharp edge now. The ricasso is marked to one side with the maker F.W. Holler/Solingen and the blade spine is marked with a crown "W", cypher and year of manufacture (1917 - see photos). The crossguard, pommel and backstrap have a nice clean blued finish overall and the pommel is marked with cypers at the top (see photos). Crossguard is numbered 966 to the reverse (see photos). Oil darkened wood grips are clean/tight and secured with screws and the spring loaded release button at the pommel functions properly.
    The bayonet scabbard is clean overall and has some blued areas but is mostly browning overall (see photos). The body has no no dings or dents but shows average wartime use/wear and the frog stud remains securely attached.
    The leather frog is the one found with the bayonet (see photos). It shows average use/wear and has a few missing stitches near the throat but is basically solid overall (see photos).
    This WWI 1917 German "Butcher Blade" bayonet is clean overall and is guaranteed to be an original period piece as described. It is well marked and is an excellent re-work/re-issue of a period sawback.
