That's what I thought too except there are no provisions anywhere on the knife that would have permitted fitting it to the front of a 98k. If however the dress bayonets were never actually fastened to a rifle, then you may be right. Not to worry about sharpening though, everyone has told me that it would detract from the knife's value if it was sharpened. Besides I have plenty of other working knifes to use instead of this one.
