**Please see pictures for more details!**
Please refer to pics for cosmetic condition. Please send me a message if you have any questions at all or if you need any additional pics.
Marking of W over the number 16 indicating 1916 as year of production. Maker appears to be Weyersberg Kirschbaum & Cie Solingen. Looks to be 100% original. Bayonet is solid and does not show any hard use such as dings or dents on the metal surfaces. Surface corrosion and discoloration on metal surfaces.  Button at rear appears to be inoperable. Screws holding wood scales on are tight and look original to bayonet. Wood scales have great patina, appears to have been period used but it is honest wear and I would consider it reasonable considering the age and where it has been. Blade is nice and straight, nice point and the saw teeth look nice.  I am by no means a collector or expert on the subject of bayonets, but have tried to describe it as well as I can.  If you have questions or need additional pictures, please ask so that you can do your own evaluation.  No scabbard is included.
