This serrated edge provides exceptional cutting power, especially against tough, fibrous materials like rope or webbing. Consequently, it stands as a premier choice for utility and survival tasks. The blade’s non-reflective black coating protects against wear and corrosion. Moreover, the classic stacked leather handle delivers a secure grip and a timeless aesthetic that has defined this knife for decades.
This knife includes a durable, high-quality brown leather sheath embossed with the U.S. Army logo. For more information on their full lineup of iconic blades, you can visit the official KA-BAR website.
If you prefer a smooth, non-serrated blade, we also recommend the KA-BAR U.S. Army Straight Edge 1220. To properly honor and safeguard this historic blade, consider displaying it in the Tomar’s 1431-AB presentation case.
