    Re-worked K-98

    I brought this the other day it was tatty as cleaned it up did some research as it intrigued me.
    What I think this is could be a Yugoicon rework M1884K98 it still has the flash guard.
    As a Germanicon 98 it is a '44 Carl Eichorn (1934-1944-5!) the scabbard is '42 CVL which is Weyersburg & Kirschbaum Co.
    It bears the No.6116 K (which I think is pretty cool) it could be a German marking as the Yugo's usually did it on the cross piece & frog stud however the examples I have seen the blade does not have such a rough finish.
    So to get an answer were the Yugo's that rough in their finishing or has bubba drunk a full 24 box of Jack Daniels cans and got to work with a grinder. TIA (Last 2 pics before/After)
