C1965 Cold War AKM Type II Bayonet & Scabbard for the AK47 Rifle. BAYO 339. - BAYO 339 The improved AKM Type II bayonet was introduced in 1965 and brought with it two significant changes. A squared-off steel pommel was added, to address the fragile nature of the Type I's bulbous plastic pommel. Revolutionary as it was, the Type I design couldn't change soldiers, who seem naturally inclined to use the pommel as a hammer. The second major change was a new scabbard. Advances in plastics technology had reached the point where the scabbard body could be made of moulded plastic, with only a metal end for the wire cutter. This eliminated the need for a rubber insulator, as the plastic scabbard body was non-conductive. The AKM Type II bayonet was produced by Bulgaria, China, Iraq, East Germany, Romania, Russia, and Yugoslavia. Variations were also produced by India and Vietnam. The AK-47 is a Russian combat rifle first used in 1949. It and an updated version called the AKM were used by the Soviet Union's military (which was called the Soviet Army). It was later replaced by the AK-74 and AK-12. The blade is un-fullered, has no markings and measures; 15 cm (27 ½ cm overall) the plastic grips are held with one pin and have the manufacturers stamp of an arrow within a triangle and a leather strap, the metalwork is good and the catch is in working order. The moulded plastic scabbard has its leather belt hook attached, there are minor service wear marks and it has a good patina with ‘941’ - ‘5280’ and the manufacturers stamp of an arrow within a triangle to the lower part.
