Re: Russian 6H5 genuine or souvenir?
Narrow crossguard area ones are rare....quite hard to find and command a premium price. I think there is little doubt yours is an original issued one. Congrats, nice find!

Re: Happy new year :)
And to you too Ilian, and the rest of the members. May you find those elusive bayonets this year.
As for me, that would be a 6x9 Ratnik, and a pebble grip 6H4.
Here's to hoping.

Re: Russian AKM 6X3 Type I bayonets and scabbards
Bringing back an old topic. This week I picked up a mismatched Type II Izhevsk bayo in poor condition with a Type 1 Tula scabbard. No doubt swapped at some stage. But bought it for the scabbard, as I didn't have an example of the notched bar and mold number on the rubber. Just posting here for inter...

Re: Is this a bayonet for an AK?
Whatever it is, it's refreshingly unusual and interesting.
Thanks Mike for all the work you put into research and theories.

Anyone able to purchase from Reibert.info?
Buying from Ukraine and Russia is obviously fairly impossible...although some of you seem to have the right connections.
I see the occasional Ratnik Bayonet for sale there at fair prices. Anyone have any ways of buying from there and getting it out of Ukraine and to a place it can be shipped from?

Current wants list: 6X9-1 and Pebble Grips bayos
These are at the top of my wants list. Would appreciate any leads. Looking for a military Kampo/6x9-1 bayonet and also any of the Type 2's with pebbble grip in any colour. Can't say I have a ton of trades, but would really like to try and add those 2 to my collection. I do have a spare INSAS if this...

Re: Chromed bayonet
To be honest, trying to understand why South Africa used what when, is pointless. I don't think they know themselves. They don't even have an official bayonet for the R4's, and half the time when they have an important parade they try and drag out old R1/Fn's so that they can mount their shiny chrom...

Re: Romanian Type II variations
They were consecutive serials, so no real serial range as such. I believe the first would have been A1000. Don't think there are any A13xx guns. Therefore logic says there were probably about 250 guns or at most, 300 guns ordered. Maybe they gave out 100 bayonets to people, no way to know. I have pe...

Re: Romanian Type II variations
I think probably over 50 left the stores. I guess there are about 250 rifles, but I can't get a firm quantity from the Recces. Maybe all left the stores and were given to operators...can't be sure. But they definitely came out with Recces and people affiliated with Spec Ops. They have been exception...
