Bayonets vs. Dedicated Melee Weapons

[Ajustusdaniel]

Oddly enough, the British still get up to bayonet charges every once in a while, as recently as 2011. I imagine the chief benefit of a bayonet over a dedicated melee weapon is that once you've bayonetted the demon directly in front of you, and your next problem is the one twenty yards away throwing fireballs, you're still holding your gun.
