KA-BAR 1217 USMC Fighting Knife

 

Ethan Becker is a man after our own heart. An avid outdoorsman who enjoys hunting, Becker founded Becker Knife and Tool Corporation in the early 1980's to design the industrial-strength survival knives he'd always wanted for himself. What we love about Becker, other than his innovative designs, is that he spends so much time in the outdoors testing new equipment and designs. KA-BAR is proud to be the manufacturer of Becker's five best-selling models - all introduced this year and brought up to date and approved by Becker himself.

The most famous fixed blade knife in the World - "the KA-BAR" - was designed to serve American troops during World War II and is still doing its job, with honors, 70+ years later. Tang stamped USMC. Leather sheath included.
