Two configurations, [I'm tempted to say zero, but probably] about 2/3 of a use. I guess you'd unfold the bayonet but keep the handle folded to use the thing's brass knuckle feature (and it's pinfire with the hammer on top, right where you're holding it---oi! better be interlocked to not drop unless the handle's unfolded!), and then unfold it fully to shoot it. Putting a bayonet on a pistol has got to be the sort of joke undergrads pull at gunsmiths' college, and that low-pressure .27 coming out of a short barrel can't do much damage, but on the other hand, it is generally healthier to stay un-perforated, and even a .22 can kill.
Wouldn't be my personal choice if I needed to carry a firearm.
Definitely a weapon of the "Who cares if it works just as long as it looks cool!" school of design.
Thanks for the link. I'd heard of the weapon before, but until I read the article I hadn't realised that the "bayonet" was only one-and-a-half inches long!
