Interesting Bayonet

Recommended Posts

I remember the trowel bayonet, on the trapdoor Springfield, for use in digging foxholes.

 

But I got to say that's the first time I've ever seen a potato fork bayonet. Must have been issued to conscript troops. Professionals would get a blade, while the drafted farmers got something they knew how to use.

I spent about two hours trying various terms to search and came up with some ebay auctions like this, and lots of Pinterest postings of the same 6 or 7 photos.  But, as you say, nothing definitive.

Same logic as behind the Soviet KV-2 tank...... "Comrade Stalin likes it!"

Do you mean the AK or the Druganov?


Neither one, I was looking at the picture wrong.
Sorry!
