As there are normal conversion known as S84/98aA with S71/84 blades, this is probably not standart version of rework, could be a dress version with old army parts used.It should be compared with S84/98aA stamps? b.r.Andy
 
Hi Bert,
this bayonet is one of the rare series of conversions made from the S71/84 - all have Imperial German acceptance stamps on pommel.

Recorded models appear to be very similar to S84/98aA bayonets with wood grips and a small round oil hole by Move-Werk & Mehlich during 1915.
Converted bayonets were also made with wood grips, a small round oil hole, with or without flashguard, with long or short fullers to the blade.
Manufacturer: Weyersberg Kirschbaum & Cie - Solingen dated 1887-89.
One other example.
Manufacturer: Alex Coppel - Solingen dated 1887.

I hope this helps.
