Original German-made M1898 n/A Peruvian GEW 98 Mauser Bayonet with Leather Scabbard and Frog - c.1909 Ancient who still control what weOriginal Item: Only One Available. In 1898 with the new Mauser Gewehr 98 bolt action infantry rifle the military adopted this long bayonet which gave an Infantryman the ability to bring a Cavalryman down from his horse due to the bayonets long reach. Of course Cavalry was soon becoming a thing of the past and these long bayonets were being surpassed by different and shorter versions. At the start of WW1 in 1914 this Gew 98 long bayonet was the norm.
