Fiskars Bayonet

[Retired W4]

Norseman got me going with his MoraKniv thread so I thought I would post this one from Finland. it's somewhat of a specialty knife but I believe it could do a lot more than stabbing the enemy with the end of a rifle. Some really good steel comes out of that part of the world,

I get your point!

That looks like a Valmet M76 muzzle that "knife" is hanging off of...

I think that's an M/62 bayonet.

The modern knife, not bayonet is called a sissipuukko. It comes in two styles, the M95 and the M07. IIRC, the only difference is the blade length and over all length with the M95 being the larger one.

Yep. It is a M76 w/bayonet (and sheath). I just lucked into this one for my Valmet. I've not personally seen another one, although I'm sure they are out there. Cape Outfitter's in MO had that stuff until their supply ran out in the 1990's. Very sharp for a bayonet with interesting lock-up with the flash suppressor.

I think I would rather be shot than have that stuck in my innards!

That brings up the question about atomic weapons. Would you
rather be vaporized instantly or run through the guts with a
bayonet to die a lingering death? I've always voted vaporized.
