Since the emergence of the bayonet, some people have thought about why the bayonet is not fixed on the gun, extended when in use, and retracted when not in use. There is no risk of loss, and it can be quickly prepared when needed. The earliest folding bayonet was mounted on the Dutch 1826 / 30-style musket and bolted to the gun side. There have been sporadic examples since then, but they have never become mainstream. The more famous in modern times is the Chinese May 6-One

Regarding the birth of the true bayonet, there are two versions in Europe: one was invented by an unknown Frenchman in 1610; the other was invented by French officer Marache de Pises in 1640. However, in both cases, the birth of the first bayonet in the world was Bayonne, a small French city, so Europe and the United States called the bayonet "Bayonet". The earliest bayonet was double-edged

Bayonet's name comes from Bayonne, a city in southwestern France, as documented

Around 1640, bayonet was used as a weapon for the front-loaded musket. It was created in the city of Bayonne in southeastern France. The word Bayonenette was derived from the name Bayonne and has been used to this day. .

The bayonet is mainly equipped on the rifle. It was used during the heyday of World War II. At that time, the single-shot rifle was the main weapon of the infantry of various countries. The firepower was weak. Value.

In the Second World War, with the widespread use of heavy weapons such as tanks and artillery, the role and status of the rifle itself decreased significantly, and the chance of using bayonet was even less. After the war, the development of the bayonet entered a low tide, and some even advocated the abolition of the bayonet. In the 1970s, the US Army even cancelled bayonet training.

After the 1980s, bayonet was re-emphasized by the armed forces of various countries. Britain, the United States and other countries developed and equipped new bayonet. The new bayonet, while retaining the stabbing function, highlights the multi-function. In addition to being able to stab, cut, cut, and saw, it also adds functions such as wire cutting, canning, and screw lifting. At the same time, multifunctional daggers (lifesaving knives) for the Air Force, Navy, and Special Forces have also been developed.

The early bayonet was a plug-type bayonet with a sword-shaped shape. The length of the blade was 30 to 60 cm. It had a wooden conical knife handle that could be inserted into the muzzle of the smoothbore barrel for stabbing instead of the long-used spear. . Soon after its introduction, the bayonet gradually spread to Europe. But it has one obvious defect: once the bayonet is inserted into the barrel, it can no longer shoot; if it is inserted too tightly, it is not easy to pull out; if it is inserted too loosely, it is easy to fall off. Later, in order to solve the above problem, someone developed a bayonet, which installed two sliding rings on the handle to put the bayonet on the muzzle.

In 1688, French Field Marshal Davabon designed the sleeve bayonet. The bayonet has a cross-shaped cross section and is sleeved on the muzzle. The bayonet is fixed by the bamboo shoots on the barrel and the bayonet on the bayonet. Because of its good performance, it quickly became popular and was adopted by European military forces around 1700. After some improvements, the bayonet is more firmly fixed. At present, many bayonets including FN FAL and FNC in Belgium are equipped with bayonet.

After 1750, bayonets connected with spears and spring guns appeared. This bayonet uses a handle similar to a handlebar instead of a sleeve, and the bayonet is fixed on a protrusion on the side of the muzzle by a spring braking device. Most of these bayonets are equipped with a muzzle ring at the hand guard, which is placed on the muzzle when the bayonet is attached, increasing the reliability of the connection with the gun, and the blade body is more flexible. It can be used as a dagger or other tools after being removed from the gun Easy to hold. After 1855, such bayonet began to be accepted by many countries, adopted by many rifles, and is still in use today.

With the continuous improvement of the connection between bayonet and gun, the shape of the blade has also begun to diversify, and several multi-purpose bayonets that have other uses have gradually appeared: some blades are single-edged and double-edged, and can also be used as daggers Some blades have serrations to cut objects; some blades are equipped with scabbards to cooperate with scissors; some are equipped with heavy blades for machete; others are made into shovel shape to dig trenches, etc.
