This modified AK-style bayonet, introduced in 1965, featured two significant improvements. The original round plastic pommel was replaced by a square steel structure, designed to eliminate a previously existing structural weak point—though frontline soldiers continued, out of habit, to use it as a hammer.
Furthermore, the scabbard was redesigned: it utilized the then-novel technique of plastic injection molding, featuring a body made of insulating plastic with a metal insert embedded in the tip for cutting barbed wire—thereby completely eliminating the need for the rubber insulating sleeve required by earlier versions.
