The most famous fixed blade knife in the world-"the KA-BAR"- was designed to serve our troops during World War II as there main fighting utility knife and is still doing its 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.
Knife comes with a quality brown leather sheath decorated with the U.S.M.C. Eagle, Globe, and Anchor logo and the KA-BAR brand name, and is heavy duty stitched and riveted for long lasting durability.
#1217 is the United States Marines version of the legendary knife offering a full size 7" blade with the original straight edge.
Blade is stamped U.S.M.C. and KA-BAR.
Also available in a U.S.M.C. partially serrated edge, see model (#1218)
Available also with a hard shell glass filled reinforced sheath, see models (#5017) & (#5018)
