    Kabar USMC Fighting Utility Knife & Sheath

    Full Tang Cro-Van hard Steel, leather stacked handle and razor Sharp! It's the most extensively used Combat Proven Knife to date in America. The knife was developed for use by the USMC starting back in December 1942 and not only deployed in the latest of conflicts but is the knife preferred by most Marine Infantrymen. The Kabar USMC Fighting Knife not only proved it's way through Combat with the Marines but became the Official Knife for ARMY and NAVY as well as being made in smaller versions for Special Force Teams. Today the knife is not only used by our Military but by Outdoorsman and a Collector item by Collectors.

    Is it a Real KaBar?

    It is made of stainless steel, it should be some other type of steel. It has no KaBar markings on it, I don't even know if it is a genuine KaBar (no packaging). It does look like good quality, just not worth the money paid.

  • Carry history on your belt.

    Own a piece of history. This knife has been tested on the battlefield in countless theaters. The beaches of Normandy, Korea, Japan, the jungles of Vietnam and our most recent engagements in the middle east. What more could you ask for? The steel may not be the hardest (1095) but it can be razor sharp with minimal effort on just a draw through sharpener, exactly what you need in a field knife. The leather handle is beautiful and easy to grip even when wet with blood. I have used this knife to skin rabbits, large game and even delicate trout. I keep it sharpened and oiled and it is always ready for anything I need it for. For those of you who need to baton wood, take a small hatchet into the field and protect your knife, for it is your greatest ally. Buy this knife. It is worth it. Don't waste your time on a cheap clone. Also, if you are "not a Marine" consider it the ultimate homage to carry with you what they have proven is one of the best knives ever made.

  • A gift that will last a lifetime

    I have never owned a KABAR before and I am glad to say that I am extremely proud that I now own one. The feel of the leather stacked handle is almost like it was meant to for me. The blade came razor sharp and looks fantastic there ain't nothing wrong about it, to be honest. I would recommend this blade to anyone who wants a piece of history or simply as an everyday use knife. If you ask me this knife is something special and is definitely a gift that will last a lifetime.

  • A great added twist to an old reliable.

    The serrated part of the blade is a great update to the time honored original. If one were in an automobile accident and the seat belts jammed this part of the blade would be able to rip right through the seat belt strap. Also when one thinks of a Marine Corp knife most think Ka-bar ! This knife is the same construction as what was issued in WW11. Solid !!

  • Really nice

    My first of two. This one and just received the D2 steel version. I love the leather wrapped handle on the military versions. Definitely recommend.

  • Old design sometimes Best.

    I was a FMF Hospital Corpsman at Camp LeJeune N.C. when I was 1st exposed to this type of knife. For past 40 years I have come across no better Utility knife. Easy to sharpen, Hard to break. Works well for work around home place. Price advantage over Case XX, Valley Forge, Gerber, even Henkel's. Great Knife. Good Deal for this price. Very good experience with Seller.

  • One And Only

    Standard issue since WW2. KA BAR is the original combat Bowie knife. Extremely sharp and durable blade wrapped in American leather, creates a perfectly balanced blade designed to last a life time. Slice open someone’s esophagus or chop down a full grown pine tree, KA BAR does it best.
