Description

China Hanyang M1935 bayonet is a bayonet used on the Chinese Chiang Kai-Shek rifle. Roger Evans in his book “The Bayonet – Evolution & History” has it as a model 1937. It is based on the Mauser S84/98 III bayonet used on German Gewehr 98 rifles and derivatives and utilizes the same Mauser bayonet lug pattern.

Bayonet is in excellent condition with the blued blade being 433mm and overall 563mm. The scabbard is leather with an ink die marking to the belt loop (partially on the front and partially on the back). Chinese numerals and characters are stamped into the leather at the back of the scabbard. (Reference RCDE Pg 150)
