The iconic survival knife from the American company Ka-Bar. Knife was created for uS Army during World War II.
To this day, in a little-changed version, it performs very well in both civilian and military applications. It has earned the name of a cult knife thanks to its great versatility of applications and perfectly selected materials.
The knife was made from a single piece of high quality Cro-Van 1095 steel. The smooth blade, with its distinctive Clip Point shape, shallow beading and embossed "USMC" letters, has been coated in black, anti-reflective coating.
The handle is made of pressed under pressure pieces of buffalo leather. A steel hilt protects the hand from slipping on the blade.
