USSR. Bayonet-knife SVT 38 (Tokarev self-loading rifle of the 1938 model). The rifle was adopted during military tests and was produced for an extremely short time.

The blade of the bayonet is single-edged, with a dale on both sides. The handle is formed by two wooden cheeks fastened to the shank with two screws. In the handle head there is a T-shaped groove and a spring latch with an internal arrangement of a spiral spring.

The marking of the bayonet consists of acceptance stamps located on the spring latch and the heel of the blade, on the heel of the blade and near the mouth of the scabbard there are also stamps of the manufacturer. In addition, there is a bayonet number on the heel of the blade that matches the rifle number.
