A Bayonet is either a knife or spike at the end of the barrel of a gun that can be used to increase melee range. The bayonet is a different length depending on the weapon and model, with the Mosin-Nagant's appearing to be the longest and Type 99 appearing to be the shortest. However, all bayonets allow the same melee distance in-game. The bayonet provides a longer melee length compared to the knife. Though the M1A1 Carbine and the M1 Garand are the only semi-automatic weapons that use the bayonet, all of the bolt-action rifles (excluding the PTRS-41) can use the bayonet and provide a powerful long-to-mid range gun with close quarter effectiveness.

It is a weapon attachment found in Call of Duty: World at War. In the campaign it will most commonly be found attached to Arisaka rifles dropped by Japanese Banzai Chargers, in which case the weapon is called the "Arisaka Bayonet."

The weapons that it can be attached to are as follows:

• M1 Garand
• Springfield
• Arisaka
• Mosin-Nagant
• Kar98k
• Type 99
• M1897 Trenchgun
• M1A1 Carbine

[edit] Bayonet Jumps

It is also used in glitch jumps known as "Bayonet Jumps" that can get the player to high places which normally cannot be accessed. However in patch 1.4 it was disabled.

[edit] Trivia

• The bayonet, in theory, should be able to kill a dog at long ranges even before the dog touches you, but it misses quite often against them.

• Snipers using the bayonet with any bolt-action rifle give the snipers a much needed close quarter power as well as having no scope on their rifle.

• The bayonet is the weapon of choice for Banzai Chargers, attached to an Arisaka rifle.

• The Springfield's bayonet stabs much faster than those of the other weapons.

• In the game, a bayonet on a Trenchgun could mutilate someone although this can't be done with any other gun with a bayonet.

• On the Wii version, the bayonet stab only occurs when the aim assist feature is on.

• On the mission Semper Fi, and Blowtorch & Corkscrew, when you stab a Japanese Soldier, they won't bleed, and there won't be any blood stain/mark.

• The Trench Gun with Bayonet is quite useful, as there is a delay between shots when pumping or reloading.

• The Commando perk of Modern Warfare 2 is similar to the bayonet as it also increases your melee distance.
• The Mosin-Nagant uses a spike bayonet, and is therefore the only weapon in the series using one.
