Hi
the grips of the Henckels S84/98 n.A are original, in my opinion. But it is reworked for sure. Normally the blade should be in the white.
But I doubt that the second one is a German S84/98 n.A., because of the missing flashguard, the lack of acceptance markings, and the grips. You could remove the handle, if it´s possible, looks Spanish to me. Can you show the other side of the bayonets?

Thanks maybe 5545 is serialed the locking nut, 83 is other assembly number? anyway the press button is slotted, the grips looks ok, never had a flashguard on tang and grips, so probably not real for german army, possible guard organisation or more real export piece. Any stamp on lower ricasso? opposite to spine picture here. Its possible the scabbard was mixed intime, the width of blade is 25mm on crossguard?
