Bulgarian AK-47 Bayonet
Knife bayonet for use with the 7.62 mm. Kalashnikov AK47 assault rifle.
A copy of the Russian 6X2 bayonet, the Bulgarian AK47 bayonet is distinguished most readily by the mottled brown grip scales and serial number perpendicular to the bayonet's long axis. Russian examples typically have the serial number running across the pommel at a 45 degree angle.
Most Bulgarian scabbards have the hilt strap secured by two rivets. The web belt hanger measures 4.125 in. (105 mm.) long x 0.75 in. (19 mm.) wide.
The reason for the unusual grip and second partial muzzle ring was that the bayonet was an afterthought, the AK47 not being initially designed to accept a bayonet.
