The Ka Bar knife brings loads of my Army day memories back to focus. I will never forget having one of these knives strapped to my side and that feeling of security it brought me. I felt like the true warrior in full blow Rambo fashion.
I firmly believe that the Ka Bar knife is one of the finest military style knives on the market. The Marine Corp will vouch for that, I assure you. Ka Bar has a line of Ka Bar USMC knives that would make any Marine drool with affection.

Just a quick tidbit of Ka Bar knife history and interest.
Did you ever wonder where the Ka Bar name came from?
An old fur trapper, back in the mid-1920’s, wrote a letter of thanks to the Ka Bar company. He told of how his gun had jammed while in a vicious confrontation with a massive bear. He had to use his knife to kill the bear or he himself would have been killed.
In the letter, the hunter wrote “k a bar”. His writing was very difficult to read, but the “k a bar” was in the context of killing the bear. The company was so honored by this letter that they adopted the Ka Bar knife name.
Have a Good One.
