From the George Anderson Collection~ A S9eitengewehr) 84/98 nA S. Pictured is a S 84/98nA which is not a deadly saw-back. The last "S" in the designation of this bayonet indicates saw-back. Saw back bayonets were issued to troops involved in areas of battlefield construction such as combat engineers, artillery troops and telegraph and telephone troops~
