Carry the knife that fought for the U.S. Army. The KA-BAR U.S. Army Straight Edge is the same iconic fighting and utility knife that has served troops for generations, proudly marked for the U.S. Army.
This knife is built for uncompromising durability. It features a 7-inch straight-edge blade forged from 1095 Cro-Van steel, which is renowned for its toughness and ease of sharpening. Furthermore, the blade is protected by a black, non-reflective coating to resist corrosion. The handle, made from stacked leather washers, provides a secure, comfortable grip that has been proven in the field for decades.
This model includes a high-quality brown leather sheath, distinctively embossed with the U.S. Army logo. Whether for a collection, for use in the field, or for survival, this knife is a legendary tool. For more information on their full lineup, you can visit the official KA-BAR website.
If your tasks require a serrated blade for cutting through ropes or webbing, we also highly recommend the KA-BAR U.S. Army Serrated Edge 1219. To properly honor and safeguard this historic blade, consider displaying it in the Tomar’s 1431-AB presentation case.
