Dutch M95 Rifle bayonet (Seitengewehr 102(h) as the Germans called them) which has been modified by the Nazis. The blade has been cut down from the original 360mm down to 280mm, and the scabbard has been shortened to fit. Originally, the scabbard was tipped with a brass ferrule secured with copper wire, but the Germans merely stitched the ends together the scabbard was shortened. Manufactured by
Staatsbedrijf der Artillerie Inrichtingen in Zaandam (Hembrug).

The Seitengewehr 104(h), the Dutch M95 Carbine bayonets, were also modified in the same manner, but I have not been able to locate on of those yet...
