| The AK47 and its variants as a group is one of the most prolific combat small arms of the 20th Century. As with most other combat small arms of historical significance, an interest in collecting AK variants and their accessories and accoutrements has developed. One of the main accessories for any combat rifle is the bayonet. This work is intended to aid both the novice and the advanced collector in identifying the various AK bayonet types and their countries of origin. The first part of this book is divided into chapters on the four main types of bayonets produced by the Russians: the AK47, the AKM Type I, the AKM Type II/Early AK74 and the AK74 bayonets. These chapters have sections showing examples of bayonets from each of the countries that produced the type discussed in the chapter. Photos showing the bayonets with scabbards and any distinctive markings are included. There are also comparative photos showing the differences between similar bayonets from different countries. Subsequent chapters cover Kalashnikov variation bayonets that do not fall in one of the four basic categories. These include chapters on the East German KM87 bayonet, the North Korean late AK47/AKM bayonets, the Indian INSAS bayonet, the Finnish Valmet bayonets, the bayonet for the South African R4, Chinese folding spike type bayonets, and the Chinese Type 81 bayonet. Vz58 rifles are not truly an AK variant, however, many collectors asked that they be included in this work and several provided the source material. Therefore, Chapter 14 covers Vz58 bayonets.
