Ka-Bar BK7 knife - Becker Combat Utility
A larger profiled version, typically of the BK7 Survival Knife from the Ethan Becker-designed Becker Knives series, manufactured since 2009 by Ka-Bar.
Knife made of a sizable piece of 1095 grade Cro-Van steel, coated with a matte black coating to prevent glare and corrosion.
The knife is designed primarily for heavy field work, it is not afraid of chopping thicker branches, etc. The blade, almost 5 mm thick, will withstand a lot.
The handle is made of BASF's patented, virtually indestructible Ultramid material. A stag-shaped handle at the bottom prevents the hand from slipping on the blade.
The set includes a tactical knife scabbard made of polyester and internally reinforced with Kydex. On the sheath there is an additional pocket with Kydex reinforcement for a BK13 and similar knife (knife not included).
