it is very difficult to tell the
difference between Russian and Bulgarian AK47 bayonets. Basically, the only
absolute method is to be sure the knife of the bayonet has a Russian factory
mark as illustrated in Figure 3. This particular factory mark is for the Izhevsk
Machine Works Factory. The factory mark on all examples observed by the author
has been in this same location. This bayonet is illustrated in Figure 4. The
Russians designate these bayonets the model “56-X-212”.
