I would welcome any comments and opinions on these two KS98 bayonets. The first has an HJ diamond and a wide fuller. It is the longer version and has a Weyersberg mark. It also has
repaired damage to the reverse grip.........
The second is an unmarked short version with a Totenkopf emblem, and I can't find a reference to one like this. I realise this is the HJ forum,
but this one is available with the HJ.

Hello "AA",
This HJ-diamond is a not authentic.
The broken reverse grip plate also seems to indicate that this bayonet has been "played" with.
Best greetings,
Herman
You never have enough HJ-knifes!

I completely agree with my colleagues on the HJ, a repaired grip plate is always a glaring red flag on these pieces with postwar added grip emblems.
Can you tell how the totenkopf emblem is affixed to the grip? Is it tight or is there a little play when it's touched?

Billy G,
I'm afraid these are all the pics I have. Don't know if there is any movement in the Totenkopf
emblem - I presume if original, it would have been pinned, so there should be a bit of movement if it is correct?
I will try and find out.
