It takes a man with a big wiener to sneak up on a schnitzel. Try again, using your schnitzel sword and use it with your big wiener. That should put an end to the schnitzel.

Uhm... an knife can technically be an bayonet. Bayonet us just an word used for an blade to be attached to the end or under the guntip. Vietnam War, U.S soldiers would have bayonet fixed in case of sudden enemy Vietnamese ambushes.

@@koreancowboy42 a bayonet does have a few defining differences from a knife, however very similar. The average bayonet has no sharp edge, and is an instrument designed for impaling.

There's also a reason nobody issues spears anymore. It's roughly the same reason nobody issues bayonets anymore.

Well you can kill anyone with anything if you try hard enough. Even if it is a mess. I will think bare hands and strangling the neck be an easier option though.

would think someone would have to hit someone’s head very fast and hard to breaks Skal Unless he stabbed the spoon in the eye. MRE spoon what does it look like? does it have sharp ends or is it like a shovel?

I read a story about a dude who beat a German soldier to death with his helmet cause they knocked each others guns out of their hands

"There will be no more air to air gun kills" -except for when there are

It is like in anglosaxon warfare, they said "if you have to draw your sword or knife, something went wrong. Better use the spear. Even in melee, you want range. And if I can choose, I take the bayonet on a gun, over a knife. It's the reach.

@@jarlnils435 Expecially one like mauser pattern ones with it you get a 1 handed sword, machetr for bushcutting and long spear if combined with a rifle. Knife bayonets are quite useless especially with how short/comact assault rifles are unless its M14 xD

In World War 1, it was a go-to hand to hand weapon, or your rifle butt. Nobody used clumsy bayonets attached to a rifle.

@@skipads5141 It was also due to pressure from both sides, a non spoken rule, the armies both banned serrated bayonets because of the vicious wounds they’d give each other, if the french or the Germans got caught with one, they were executed almost immediately by the other side, it’s likely many new soldiers got the serrated bayonet confused with a standard and opted for the entrenched

@@skipads5141 they were seldom used but that doesn't mean nobody used them. A bayonet is much more effective than the butt of a rifle.

During 1st World War and 2nd World War, both sides used shovels as a weapon too, but mostly in WW1. Some soldiers sharped the sides of the shovel for lethal effect during WW1.

Real life Riddick.

During the Second Gulf War and the war in Afghanistan, the British Army units mounted bayonet charges.[64] In 2004 in Iraq at the Battle of Danny Boy, the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders bayonet-charged mortar positions filled with over 100 Mahdi Army members. The ensuing hand-to-hand fighting resulted in an estimate of over 40 insurgents killed and 35 bodies collected (many floated down the river) and nine prisoners. Sergeant Brian Wood, of the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment, was awarded the Military Cross for his part in the battle.[65] In 2009, Lieutenant James Adamson of the Royal Regiment of Scotland was awarded the Military Cross for a bayonet charge while on a tour of duty in Afghanistan: after shooting one Taliban fighter dead, Adamson had run out of ammunition when another enemy appeared. He immediately charged the second Taliban fighter and bayoneted him.[66] In September 2012, Lance Corporal Sean Jones of The Princess of Wales's Regiment was awarded the Military Cross for his role in a bayonet charge which took place in October 2011

There's a reason why SAS and other elite units use guns like MP5 in CQB. They're small and it's easier to move in small rooms and hallways than with rifles especially ones that have bayonets hanging from barrels.

If I was a military commander and knew there was a team rushing in using bayonets, I would have an every fighter lined up ready to mow them down with heavy gunfire as they attempt to stab people.

Bruh, its a bayonet, its attached to guns. Do you think soldiers will say, "Oops, I'm going in a small tunnel, better drop my rifle so I can fit better", its not a "glorified spear", literally a gun with a knife attached, I think you forgot the gun part and just look at the knife part.

@@narutomato_uzumaki Bruh, a long gun in a tunnel is generally considered not very good. There's a reason why, for example, swat teams tend to use weapons that are small and short despite lower caliber (like SMGs) - you can maneuver it efficiently even in a cramped house. A rifle is long, cumbersome in CQC, and a bayonet only makes it longer and more likely to snag on something if you need to turn around. There's a reason sewer rats in Vietnam were given pistols and knives instead of rifles and bayonets. Also, if you're in position to stab someone with a bayonet, you tend to also be in position to pull the damn trigger

Don't bother. The people in these comments section and the uploader are zoomer retards. Handguns are king in close quarters.

not hating on your grandfather but think about it, it doesn't take much to point a gun in the direction of some one 3ft in front of you and pull the trigger. with a thrust you still have to either move your arms or body forward which are both still slower than a bullet.

​@@canyunhicks1587bayonet is also a weapon retention device. In the situation you're replying to, its not uncommon for combatants to try to grab rhe muzzle of your weapon. Try doing that with a razor sharp bayonet mounted.

@@Cheesepuff8 you’re not being dumb.

It took waaaayyy too much time scrolling down to see this point brought up. And if you aren't going to keep the bayonet affixed to your rifle, you may as well reach for a pistol instead of combat knife in close quarters

A bayonet doesn't make too much of difference in shooting for me at 100 yards with a Mauser. If they are further where more precision is needed, you probably don't need the bayonet on your rifle.

Eh, as shown when the brits were charging insurgents in Afghanistan, and in WW1 and 2. Charging whilst screaming whilst holding a sharp thing evokes a primal fear, especially when not expected. It's a lot more immediately terrifying to our monkey brains than the much more abstract gun
