The bayonet is an essential item of a soldier’s kit even on today’s modern hi-tech battlefield. This work examines the origins of this humble weapon and the ‘cult of the bayonet’ as espoused by the Russian General Alexander Suvorov who asserted that “The bullet misses, the bayonet does not”. The first bayonets appeared in France in the early 17th century and soon they were being used by every army in Europe.
