Strange Polish markings

Post by corgi »

It's described as a Polish experimental scabbard, but I've never seen anything like it

I translated the article, thanks.

Are those scabbards in China? Could you ask for more info or pictures? (just asking)

The knives and scabbards of the Polish 6H4 are of Polish origin in terms of the materials used.
I believe the author of this description was referring to the black plastic scabbard.
The black scabbard is made of the same material as the brown one, but it was simply given a very thick black coating.
It is noteworthy that the intended finish is very similar to the Russian 6X4 scabbards.
I present these Polish 6H4 test bayonets here in detail.
These must have been manufactured between 1979 and 1985, as the knives have different production characteristics of the crossguard.
On the 6H4 with the black scabbard, the riveting of the crossguard is cleanly ground flat, the base of the attachment is left angular, very poorly marked with the acceptance mark, and the retaining ring is left with a sharp cast edge.
Brown Polish. 6H4: The riveting of the guard was poorly ground flat, the edges of the base were chamfered, the acceptance mark was poorly stamped, and the cast edge on the retaining ring was ground.

See the pictures for more details.
Best regards, G.

Die Messer Bzw. die Scheiden des Pol. 6H4 sind in den dazu verwendeten Materials Polnischen Ursprung.
Ich denke, daß der Verfasser dieser Beschreibung sich auf die schwarze Kunstoffscheide bezogen hatte.
Die schwarze Scheide ist vom selben Material wie die Braune, diese wurde einfach mit einen sehr dicken schwarzen Farbauftrag versehen.
Bemerkenswert ist ,das das intendische Finisch den Russischen 6X4 Scheiden sehr ähnelt.
Ich stelle hier mal mit ausführlichen Details diese Polnischen 6H4 Versuchs Bajonette vor.
Die Herstellung dieser müsste so zwischen 1979-1985, erfolgt sein da die Messer unterschiedliche Produktionsmerkmale der Parrierstange aufweisen .
Beim 6H4 mit schwarzer Scheide ist die Vernietung des Parrierstück sauber Plan geschliffen,der Sockel von der Aufpflanzung Kantig belassen , sehr schlecht mit der Abnahme gepunzt und den Haltering mit scharfer Gusskante belassen.

Braunes Pol. 6H4 die Vernietung des Parrierstück schlecht Plan geschliffen,den Sockel von der Aufpflanzung die Kanten angefahst , schlecht mit der Abnahme gepunzt und am Haltering die Gusskante beschliffen.

Mehr ist auf den Bildern zu entnehmen.

Best regards, G.

Surprisingly, these two scabbards seem to be the original items in the pictures I posted. I'm really grateful. Thank you for the high-definition pictures
