The kurzes Seitengewehr (kS98) or short bayonet was made for the Gew98 rifle and its variants. As the name implies it was considerably shorter than the standard S98 bayonet. It was first was introduced to the Prussian army in 1902 for use by machine gunners though it was also later used by other branches of the army. The kS98 became the standard bayonet of the Schutztruppe of South West Africa after the Herero Rebellion. It was also issued to the Schutztruppe of East Africa and Cameroon as the Kar98AZ began to replace the JB71 rifle. Production ceased during the First World War though privately purchased examples were popular and were still made for officers and senior NCOs until well after the war.
