A Brazilian Model 1908 Mauser bayonet in very good condition, complete with its scabbard. The scabbard is leather fitted with steel mounts. The listing does not describe maker marks or serial numbers, so rely on the photos for any stampings you want to check. Condition grading is the supplier's, and very good is the wording used for the bayonet itself.

For an Illinois buyer this is a militaria piece: it completes a Brazilian Mauser rifle display, or it joins a bayonet collection built around the Mauser pattern. Leather scabbards of this age do best in dry storage with an occasional light coat of leather conditioner, and the steel mounts and blade can be wiped with oil to hold the current condition. Because it is sold as a used collectible rather than a working tool, most buyers keep it cased or on the wall.
