KA-BAR Straight Edge Short Knife with Leather Sheath in Black - A Great Utility Knife, A Review

I bought my first KA-BAR. The perfectly sized fixed blade knife, the Short Ka-Bar performs as well as the larger original, but is a more practical size for camping, carrying and general utility. The American legend is fitted with an oval-shaped Kraton G thermoplastic elastomer handle.



I got it via Amazon for USD50.61.

This watch is made in the USA with a blade length of 5.25"or 13.34 cm. Overall length is 9.25" or 23.50 cm. Coated black for rust protection. 

The steel is 1095 Cro-Van steel which is a high carbon steel. The sheath is real leather and made in Mexico.




This is a brilliant knife. Although it is not a full-size KA-BAR knife, the smaller size is more practical in my view and experience. It is a lighter and easier to carry knife. As a utility knife, it is great.
