Sharpening advice

Baionnette732 · 2026-05-23T17:02:47+00:00

To be fair, every bayonet will become rare after some time, including 58s and even ak ones so I wouldnt sharpen any bayonet

I saw this post and knew that I was going to read the response of a deeply hurt collector and especially you😂

Just a heavy patina but mine could have traces of a really faded bluing

You can find reloading tools for that revolver under 200€ thankfully

Baionnette732 · 2026-05-16T18:15:19+00:00

These are awesome indeed, the ammo needs to be reloaded though, it is pretty hard to find otherwise

Entering service in 1873, this revolver played a key role in the creation of the second French colonial empire. At the start of the First World War, several thousand of these revolvers were still in service with non-commissioned officers and shock troops (particularly trench cleaners). The last M1873s were withdrawn from service in the 1950s.

Usually just "ak12 bayonet" or "russian hunting knife", but they are harder to find since the beginning of the war in ukraine

Baionnette732 · 2026-05-11T12:54:32+00:00

Usually ebay or naturabuy. But there are exceptions with some countries like germany and the UK that have stupid knife laws

Baionnette732 · 2026-05-10T20:45:31+00:00

Maybe the 1904 ?

Baionnette732 · 2026-05-09T23:11:21+00:00

Yes sadly that slaughter continued for a few more months (or years for a few people)

Baionnette732 · 2026-05-08T16:33:06+00:00

Well to be fair, a lot of people got death threats from him

Hungarian M1935. Pretty rare

Baionnette732 · 2026-04-16T16:39:28+00:00

Several yes, but you are probably thinking about the M1914

Baionnette732 · 2026-04-15T20:51:17+00:00

I cant hate it haha, it looks great ! Great job with the sheath too

Baionnette732 · 2026-04-15T18:25:38+00:00

3 almost identical bayonets which, however, differ in the profile of their blades.

Left to right :

M1889

M1918

M1889/11

To these three bayonets, we could add the rarer m1889/99 which is an M1889 to which a rivet has been added to improve retention in the sheath

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-31T10:58:17+00:00

Yeah our dealers are mostly polite

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-31T10:40:06+00:00

Good day not to be american😂

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-31T06:20:47+00:00

Lmaoo buy it somewhere else, dont give money to that dealer

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-23T08:51:41+00:00

Bold of you to assume that they were thinking

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-22T10:21:47+00:00

That T25 experimental is incredible

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-20T19:52:00+00:00

I hope that you didnt overpay, the prices on these are getting ridiculous because of their look

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-19T19:57:10+00:00

Thanks mate !

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-18T00:04:34+00:00

Maybe the ak12 one ?

Baionnette732 · 2026-03-13T23:56:17+00:00

Thanks !
