The WBP AK Bayonet is a New Production AK Bayonet from the team at WBP Poland. These bayonets are made to the same specifications as the Polish Military 6H4 bayonets and are an excellent example of the type II bayonets. These are compatible with AKM pattern rifles and AK74 pattern rifles with standard bayonet lugs and would make a great additional to anyone's collection otherwise. 

Brief historical/technical data:

The Polish 6H4 Type II is a copy of the Russian 6X4 bayonet, it differs by the absence of saw teeth on the blade spine. The Polish AKM Type II bayonet also represents a transition between the AKM Type I and Type II bayonets, mating the Type I scabbard with the Type II bayonet. These bayonets were designed for use with the 7.62 mm AKM's as well as 5.45×39 mm caliber including karabinek wzór 1988 Tantal Rifle (carbine model 1988 Tantalum) and 5.56 mm. NATO caliber karabinek szturmowy wz. 1996 Beryl [assault carbine model 1996 Beryllium]. In approximately 1972, the 6H4 bayonets were produced in large quantity, which likely lead to Poland’s continued use of the 6H4 bayonet into present day.
