The most famous fixed blade knife in the world-"the KA-BAR"- was designed to serve our troops during World War II and is still doing it's job, with honors, more than 50 years later.
The quality materials used and their classic construction-stacked leather handle, double guards, and pinned on butt caps-are what made these the best all-purpose knives manufactured today.
Made exclusively in Olean, New York and proudly stamped KA-BAR & USCG.
Knife comes with a quality brown leather sheath decorated with the U.S.C.G. logo as well as the KA-BAR brand name, heavy duty stitched and riveted for long lasting durability.
#1208 is KA-BAR's recognition to the brave men and women of the United States Coast Guard who serve a vital role in our nation’s security and distress rescue operations.
This version of the legendary knife offers a full size blade with the original flat ground straight edge.
Production of this model ended in 2008
