Description

The most famous fixed-blade knife in the world, the KA-BAR USMC Fighting/Utility Knife was designed to serve U.S. troops during World War II and is still built to the same pattern today. Its 7-inch clip-point blade is ground from 1095 Cro-Van carbon steel — tough, easy to maintain, and able to hold a keen working edge through hard use.

A black epoxy powder coat shields the blade from the elements, while the contoured stacked-leather handle and carbon-steel guard deliver the grip and balance Marines have trusted for generations. Each knife ships with a brown leather belt sheath stamped with the USMC Eagle, Globe & Anchor. Tang-stamped USMC and made in Olean, New York.
