You appear to have an early private purchase S84/98. I cannot make out the maker marking on the ricasso of the blade. Who is the maker?

Thanks for the additional pictures. Your bayonet now appears to be a Seitengewehr 14, Type I made by Samson Werk in Suhl. Samson also supplied Walther & Co. blade blanks to make some odd variations of the early S84/98 but yours now appears to be a S14. The etching for the Artillery Depot appears to have been added but may well be original to the time period as light etching of this type is known.
