Past tense: stabbed or attacked with a bayonet, or equipped with a bayonet.
From 'bayonet,' possibly derived from Bayonne, France, where the weapon was allegedly invented or manufactured. The '-ed' suffix creates the past tense in regular English verbs.
The bayonet is one of history's stranger weapons—a dagger attached to a rifle—because it emerged when muskets fired so slowly that soldiers needed a melee weapon while reloading, combining two entirely different combat technologies on one tool.
