T81 Chinese variation with double fullered spear point blade, no saw no wire cutter KM 87 East German version made in very limited numbers with tool kit in handle. Scabbard the same as for the Type 1ĪKM Training has a sprung loaded plunger instead of a bladeĪK74 New pattern with double edged spear point blade, sawback and wire cutter. Scabbard is metal with or without a rubber insulatorĪKM Type 2 Also early AK74, Heavy square hilt, with wire cutter and sawback. Type 56 Fixed folding spike used by ChinaĪK47 Type Spear point blade, with ears to go around barrel, instead of a slot for attachmentĪKM Type 1 Has a bowie blade with wire cutting facility, and a more normal curved hilt. I would like to than Brian for his help on this If you can add any additional information or correct any errors on my part pleaseįor consistency I've used the following designations for the main bayonet types, these are not necessarily the country designation (I'll add these as I find them) but will give a consistent identifier for each different type.
