Brands You Trust: Ka-bar Knives

Making a quality KA-BAR product requires the talent of experienced craftspeople performing dozens of processes with precision and skill. Each knife undergoes specific manufacturing processes to ensure corrosion resistance, strength, edge holding ability, and an out-of-the-box razor sharp cutting edge.

Soon after its introduction in the mid-1920's, the KA-BAR trademark became widely known and respected. There have been many versions of how the KA-BAR name came to be, but all evidence points to a letter received from a fur trapper. This particular fur trapper's testimonial turned out to be the most significant ever received by the company.

He wrote, in very rough English, that his gun had jammed and that he had therefore relied on his knife to kill a wounded bear that was attacking him. In thanking the company for their quality product the trapper described using his knife to kill the bear. All that was legible of his scrawled writing was "k a bar". The company was so honored by this testimonial that they adopted this phrase and used it as their trademark, KA-BAR.

This is a sweet knife that you would expect in a K-bar. Sharp and balancedfor transitioning. The sheath is as great as the knife

Bob J. from Selinsgrove, PA

This is a great looking knife! I have used it in the field and it has been very handy. I recommended it for anyone looking for a good solid knife that they can trust.

John O. from Liberty, TX

I love this knife. Sturdy, durable, razor sharp, and amazing looks. The shape's not for everyone but I personally think it's great. One of the best sheathes I own and very safe. Definitely my new favorite knife.

Richard K. from Neenah, WI

The knife was a very nice weapon.It's for my step son who is going into the Army Rangers next summer.I only hope it will save his life someday if need be.
