Feldmesser 78 - Glock Rifle Bayonet for Steyr AUG

[@Viersbovsky]

The "bottle opener" is actually for attaching the "K-Gerät" (blank fire adapter) to the barrel of the AUG. It hooks into the side of the adapter and the blunt side of the knife fits into the front groove. This way you can screw in the adapter tightly. It is a tool for the AUG.

[@wiegl8596]

We used to do that either with the blade or the back of the knife, I can't quite remember but I've never seen someone using the hook for that.

[@kz11377]

As far as your doubts whether this is an Austrian army genuine knife, let me pressure you are 100% correct.The B /H markings on the blade stand for 'Bundesheer', which are army proof markings.

[@The_otschi]

Yes that is correct The round glock logo is the old one

[@TheNewb187]

@@The_otschi yea....just like the last youtube video you watched stated.....

[@Kullioking]

Nice knife. This is a original military version. You see it on the sign on the blade, the circle with the triangle in it. This is the national emblem from the austrian military.

[@Kullioking]

The triangle in the Survival prepper is pointing up and dont touches the circle, in the Bundesheer emblem it points down and touches the circle.

[@philippkrona2710]

no its original for sure i was at the austrian army n still own the knive the triangle means the ausrian goverment justice n executive n the circle means we protect them!

[@M95-v4r]

It's an original knife from our army! The stamping BH with the triangle in the circle means that it was property of the Bundesheer (Austrian army).

[@fritz240]

Weiß du eigentlich was das Dreieck im Kreis bedeutet, ich rätsel da nachwievor und bekomme keine Auskunft darüber. Ich denke es könnten die 3 Staatsgewalten damit gemeint sein und der Kreis umgibt diese und schützt sie. Klingt das möglich ? lg

[@M95-v4r]

Ich hab leider auch nicht mehr herausgefunden als, dass es von 1936-1938 und 1955-heute das Hoheitszeichen des Bundesheers war/ist. Verwendet wird es von Luftstreitkräften, Marine und Bodenstreitkräften. Vielleicht symbolisiert es die drei Verbände die zusammen das Dreieck also Österreich schützen.

I just want to know if its blooded?

[@DustMug]

Ist das messer auch in der Farbe RAl7013 ? Es tut mir leid für meine schlecht Deutsch

[@simdon99]

You're right.It is a austrian Bundesheer knife because there's the emblem of the austrian army on it. greetings from austria!

[@johnfranks]

Wow, I've never seen the old logo before... Very cool!

[@beelikestowatch]

I have only one Glock knife. You always make me just a tad jealous. Cool info, Thanks for sharing

[@Wydglide]

That is just too cool, I had to buy a new 78 after viewing yuor last video one of the best field knikes I've ever owned.

[@fumasterchu12]

Just got my first Glock knife the other day and it surprised me. It was very sharp right out of the box. I'll be getting a couple more to add to the collection soon after Christmas.

[@gapster46]

I’ve had the G78 in FDE for a few years. Think I’ve used it once or twice. Still looks new. Lives in my range bag. Your original video inspired me to keep it pristine. For the price, it has to be one of the best deals out there.

[@kodoyama]

Great find! I picked up an early Glock Austrian army pistol belt some time ago which has the same round logo as your knife. I think it dates to the late 70's. I've been meaning to add a Glock knife to my collection for years anyway - time to add it to the Christmas list.

[@OGvanillagorilla]

Im glad you set it straight. The features on the knife are for the Steuhr AUG. CORRECT.

[@67NewEngland]

Cool find. That's why it's always a good idea to check in with EBay every so often...I just always forget to. Interesting to see older generation Glock products.

[@noelbecker5119]

It is a real Army knive because it says B H on the Blade , and B H stands for "Bundesheer"

[@fumasterchu12]

Now you've done it, I'm gonna have to get me a Glock knife too. I'll be checking out your other video too.

[@sambrandt4755]

Does anyone know where you can buy the adapter?

[@brucewilson77]

I love my glock knives! From what i have learned the glock knife is made out of 55si7 european spring steel.

[@cdm1250uhf1]

You're absolutely correct they look better with character! And thanks for the reply.

[@cdm1250uhf1]

Really kool knives. Because of your other Glock knife video's, I bought the Glock model 78 and the model 81. Thanks for sharing your video's.

[@KSFWG]

With the Glock in the background I kept expecting you to pick it up and attach the bayonet to the Glock. Now how cool would that have been... :)

[@tom_olofsson]

Good to know.

[@catmaster7370]

In the Bundesheer we actually had the same round logo on the knives

[@GunThinkDotCom]

Awesome video. I told ebomey about the 'bottle opener' a while back. Interesting to see the old Glock logo. Surprised you were able to pick it up for such a reasonable price. Thanks for sharing.

[@majorbludd6369]

Does the plug come out of the handle

[@ArtisanTony]

Very cool!

[@eliashaller4255]

Yes, that's an authentican Glock field knife - standart issued for austrian soldiers and officiers. I still have mine (used to be a Lieutenant with the austrian hunter reconnaissance)

[@franzl1993]

its for sure from the austrian military bc. there is "BH" on it which stands for "Bundesheer".

[@franzl1993]

theKGB65 i will get this knife at 7th. july when i have to serve the austrian "Bundesheer" for 6 moths. ;)

[@franzl1993]

well u have to give it back... and if you "lose" it u have to pay a fee. the fee depends on the item you lose.

[@franzl1993]

if you pay enough i could lose one... just kidding! ;)

[@JohnJameson18y]

theKGB65 Might be late but the fee for losing one is about 8€ or ~10$.

[@FiLthyPhiLSS]

I like the look of that knife. Thanks for the vid

[@beelikestowatch]

I think you should do a part 2 to the original video, "can a glock knife SPLIT a bullet"

[@KSFWG]

And you should shoot .45 gap -- just to keep it 'Glock to Glock', ya think?

[@KSFWG]

And you need air for what? :)

[@rls303]

Great find, Thanks for the very cool info/video

[@alexzandererstad]

I just ordered one. Thanks for the info.

[@samlott99]

Man, by the video title, i thought id see it demonstrated as a bayonet.

[@72cmcinc]

Very cool find! A nice one to have!

[@josephg.3370]

Thanks!

[@SilkDomi]

Nice discovery!!!

[@ShadyNH]

I don't known yet for sure. It hasn't arrived yet. For the price I bought it almost blindly. From the pictures it looks all polymer except for the rivets eyelets and hooks. Ill report back when it arrives from Austria.

[@Fredateam]

The bayonet attachment doesn't seem like a very solid arrangement. Has anyone seen one on a gun in person?

[@jakob3736]

+Richard Paauwe no because we in the austrian army don`t use it anymore this way

[@thjharm]

Your old 78 have the B and H on the blade witch means Bundesheer name of the austrian army,

[@snow_tacknives2024]

I see that its on the rifle barrel but what keeps it from nilly dilly coming off?

[@theKGB65]

Glock used to offer a bayonet lug adapter for the AUG, though I've never seen one.

[@jdeleur5713]

Is there a groove in the hollow handle? I believe the bayonet lug attached with a little ball bearing.

[@theKGB65]

The knives that I removed the plugs from don't have a groove in the metal tube. The knife featured in this video still has the plastic plug inserted and I don't want to remove it. The plug is fitted very tightly and, from past experience, any attempts at removing it will stretch and deform the lip where it meets the handle. I wonder if the ball bearing you're referring to would somehow detent into one of the two holes that pass through the metal tube.

[@jdeleur5713]

@@theKGB65 That could also be the case. Groove would mean that the knife isn’t securely fitted. If the bearings fit in the holes is would be fitted sturdy. Only seen photos and a blueprint of the adapter unfortunatly.

[@GunThinkDotCom]

More videos please! How bout a little winter shooting?

[@EduardoGarcia-fj2uc]

Very good video. I'm looking for one m 78 but is hard to find on amazon or ebay

[@eg0nlebtB]

It is legit. The "B H" Marking stand for "Bundesheer" (Austrian Army)

[@pete_boy71]

ha ha i didn`t serve ,but even i knew about your "super news" and we still use them...that one used for decades lol...

[@dstressr110]

That is really cool, with the history and all. I think you have better access sometimes to these things being from the great white north. Can you get the Glock conversion to carbine kits that require a tax stamp here? Attaching the knife to one of those would take it full circle.

[@luxordeathbed]

Next project. Modify AUG so can take the knife!

[@stanfordcoffee]

Good video, very informative. Perhaps a little alcohol will remove the rest of the pen from the sheath. Cheers

[@ShadyNH]

KGB, what can you tell me about the Austrian Service Pistol Belts made by Glock? I found one cheap online and picked it up just out of curiosity. Didn't see anything online after a quick search.

[@13bravoredleg18]

I have a AES Solingen West German field knife. It is very hard to find in America!

[@johnmutton799]

They are all bayonets!

[@sickjohnson]

As always such a great video sir! Thanks again and have a merry Xmas, and happy new year.

[@Chebby303]

The B+ symbol+ H Is the acceptance mark of the Bundesheer (Austrian Army). You will see the triangle in a circle on Austrian air force planes etc. The knife you have is the 2nd Pattern FM 78. The first pattern has a 'swept back' guard. Check-out the Forums. The Germans and Russians know everything! I got three from Austria ( Glockland ) € 14.90 each!

[@GunThinkDotCom]

I'll make a new video if you will.

[@wolfgangsereinig5305]

I have the same original, i am from AUSTRIA

[@treerat7631]

It was degsined too be a bayonet for the stayer aug

[@silverdollarswede151]

Maybe my wife will get me one.

[@royjennison3916]

bottle opener , ha ha . no one bereaves that its a bayonet for christ sake .

[@jukid6882]

Its original im in the austrian army ive got the same. Styer have made n original bajonett but you dont need an bajonett because u can put the front of the wappon (mündungstück) in an body thats why the army havent an bajonett

[@БогданШпаковский-э6ш]

Hello! Tell me, is this knife completely disassembled? And if it is disassembled, then after reassembly by hand, does it not lose its original strength and integrity?

[@theKGB65]

Nope, just removed the dust cap from the end of the handle.
