Features
Knife bayonet originally made for use with the 7mm M1908 Mauser rifle produced for Brazil by DWM in Germany. The M1908 was closely patterned on the Gewehr 98 rifle used by Germany.
These bayonets were made from 1908–1914 by several German blade makers. These were made by Alex Coppel of Solingen, Germany.
The German-made scabbard has a leather body with a brass or steel locket and chape.
For scabbards marked with an "FI" is an abbreviation for Fabrica de Itajuba, the Brazilian state arms factory. This identifies the scabbard as a Brazilian-made replacement scabbard. These later scabbards have a leather body with deeply blued steel mounts.
