Spandau 25 is well known inspection proof, is mentioned by various rifles in Karabiner 98k trilogy of Mike Steves and Bruce Karem, i assume in some bayonets books too, You should look here for S84/98 bayonet made by WuK 1927 i assume some of them are too Su25 proofed.
 
As Andrej stated a known inspection proof found on S98/05 and S84/98 (aA, nA, reworks and Third Reich period) as well as other models. There are other Su proofs as well including Su58 as an example. Discussed and with examples photographed in a number of reference works. German Bayonets I and II by Anthony Carter. The German S84/98 Bayonet Volume I: 1908-1933 by Bruce Karem. Seitengewehr: History of the German Bayonet 1919-1945 by George T. Wheeler and probably others.
