M1935 |
Bayonet for the 8 mm. Puska 35.M (Rifle 1935 Mannlicher) adopted by Hungary, just prior to World War II. This example is the cavalry variant, with an auxiliary front sight atop the muzzle ring. This example was made in 1939 by Femaru Fegyver es Gepgyar Reszvenytarsasag, which, in English, means "Metal Products, Weapon and Machinery Factory Company" This bayonet utilizes the French Berthier crosspiece and press stud arrangement. However, the remaining features are quite unique. The flattened cruciform blade profile makes for a very stout blade, much stronger than a typical cruciform blade. The round pommel unscrews to allow replacement of the one-piece wooden grip. The rifle has a stud on front of the upper band, which inserts into the bayonet's pommel to secure the bayonet in place. The scabbards were painted a light green. A small amount of the original paint remains near the top, having been protected by the frog. |

AKM Type I | Knife bayonet for use on the AKM variant of the Kalashnikov AK-47 assault rifle. Reddish-brown composition grip. Black steel Type I scabbard with a tan rubber insulator. Tan leather wrist strap and belt hanger. The Hungarian belt hanger is unique, having a separate hilt strap and belt loop. These bayonets are typically found with the hilt strap present, but are missing the belt loop. I was able to obtain an original belt loop from a seller in Budapest. The leather belt loop measures 2.75 in. (70 mm.) long by 3/4 in. (19 mm.) wide. A copy of the Russian 6X3 bayonet, these were made 1963-1970 by Femaru Fegyver es Gepgyar Reszvenytarsasag (which, in English, means "Metal Products, Weapon and Machinery Factory Company").
