Sergey Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I wish to show the Soviet bayonet for Mosin's rifle made in the surrounded Leningrad. It is rare enough version of a bayonet for the widespread Soviet rifle.In Russia it name blocadnik (блокадник). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I have not seen any made like this before. Was this example ground recovered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meffert Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Interesting bayonet.Looks like an svt40 blade welded to a mosin nagant mount. I suppose they used what they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Posted December 28, 2007 Author Share Posted December 28, 2007 Interesting bayonet.Looks like an svt40 blade welded to a mosin nagant mount. I suppose they used what they had.Yes it is possible to see two parts. The first the basis from a needle of a rifle of Mosin. Second -an edge from Tokarev's rifle.However an edge longer than at SVT-40. This edge is more than the edge of a bayonet SVT.This edge is more similar to an edge of a German carbine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share Posted January 1, 2008 Here for comparison - bayonets SVT-40, a carbine 98 and blocadnic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 It does look a lot like an SVT bayonet. IT is an undisputed Soviet MN bayonet, whatever the variation. Thank you for sharing it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belaruski Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 It seems odd to make a blade like that when metal was scarce. Surely some kind of simple spike would have been more logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely some kind of simple spike would have been more logical.I think what to make edges simple work if to compare to a needle. However I shall try to find the literature on the reason of such decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
