M6 kris bayonet

[edit]

The idea to produce a bayonet patterned after a Philippine bladed weapon, such as the M6 kris bayonet presently used by the Philippine Military Academy, was probably influenced by American bolo bayonets from the early 20th century. These bolo bayonets were used with Krag-Jorgensen and Springfield rifles. It should also be noted that in the mid-20th century Spain also produced bolo bayonets for Mauser and CETME rifles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.107.159.125 (talk) 10:52, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

According to the web site http://pagesperso-orange.fr/christian.mery/ the Royal Order of 14 May 1898 prescribed as a regulation weapon the Cuchillo-Bayoneta modelo 1898 para la carabina Mauser mod. num. 2 de la Compañía de Aerostacion, a bayonet which has a blade which resembles the blade of a bolo bayonet. This Spanish bayonet, of which only 20 were made, was invented before American bolo bayonets.

Diameter of a m6 bayonet handle

What's the diameter of the handle? Because I'm trying to figure it out? 97.98.123.151 (talk) 03:54, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
