The Model 1914 bayonets were a sawback sword style featuring a long (17 7/8 inch) swell-point blade. The blade has a fuller on one side only. These were issued to both the K11 and K31 Schmidt Rubin rifles for specialized troops such as Engineers, Drivers, Blacksmiths, and Cavalry support.

This bayonet is in very good condition. The blade edge shows no dings or rolling. The sawback edge is very good with solid sharp teeth and only a few minor spots of staining. The blade point is good but slightly rounded. There is minor rust spot staining as well as some scratching and minor wear. The hand guard is very good with no rust evident. The grip is very good with minor wear. The pommel shows very minor staining.

This bayonet comes with a scabbard. The scabbard is excellent with with minor finish loss. The scabbard is marked with a rifle indictating made by SIG.

Fits Schmidt Rubin K11 and K31 rifles. Will not fit 96/11 or 1911 rifles.
