Engineering:QNL-95
The QNL-95 (Chinese: 95式多用途刺刀, lit. 'Type 95 Multi-use Bayonet') is the current issue knife bayonet of the People’s Liberation Army.
History
Previously, the PLA adopted Soviet bayonet designs.[1][2]
Notable examples include the Type 56 (Chinese: 56式) inspired by 6KH2 and the Type 86 (Chinese: 86式) inspired by 6KH4, for their AK rifles.[3][4]
However, as they're integral folding spike bayonets, it was not intended as a combat knife, which could affect the durability of the blade negatively if misused.
The QNL-87 (Chinese: 87式刺刀, lit. 'Type 87 Bayonet') served as the first PLA knife bayonet, before being replaced by the QNL-95 alongside the QBZ-95 rifle.
Design
The QNL-95 is a multi-purpose bayonet and knife, like its predecessor QNL-87.[5][6]
While it may externally resemble the American M9 bayonet, there are differences between M9 and QNL-95 grips.
As a rifle accessory, the QNL-95 can be affixed to various PLA service weapons, including the QBZ-95, QBZ-95-1, QBZ-03, QBS-06 and QBZ-191.[7][8][9][10]
