Ka-Bar Knives were originally made for the United States Marine Corp ("USMC"), but were not only adopted by the Marines but also the army, navy, coastal guards and underwater demolition teams.

The quality materials used and their classic construction-stacked leather handle, double guards, and pinned on butt caps-are what made these one of the best all-purpose knives manufactured today.

This Ka-bar knife is the US Marine Corp shorter version of the legendary WW II knife offering a 5 1/4" flat ground blade with plain edge. Overall length is 9 1/4", with a 5 1/4" black epoxy powder coated carbon steel blade.

Comes with a quality brown heavy-duty leather sheath (pictured below) embossed with the USMC logo and the KA-BAR brand name. It is heavy-duty stitched and riveted for long lasting durability.

Made in Olean, New York, USA.
