Kalashnikov Bayonets of the World

Two color matching collected, do not know what the meaning of the number on the handle

Hi Zhangjun.

Very nice examples of the variations found with these bayonets. Both types of scabbards and hangers used. They can be used with either bayonet. No one seems to know the meaning of the grip color or the numbers on the pommel. The scabbards and hangers are obviously surplus East German Type I and II. The bayonets are a mystery and do not match any other AK bayonets. All new production. Lots of ideas and theories, but no actual proof. We call them Vietnamese, but with no proof. It is fun to read all the posts about them here. Mike

Here's all the info known on these: https://akbayonets.info/viewtopic.php?t=481
I believe the story of a Dutch dealer having these made in Vietnam through a Dutch contact of his, to use up surplus EG scabbards.
There seems to be little proof that these were used by the Vietnamese, but they are an interesting item, and most bayo collectors have one or 2 for interest.

Thank you for your answers
