Own a piece of American history with the KA-BAR USMC Straight Edge, the most famous fixed-blade knife in the world. First designed to serve U.S. Marines during World War II, this knife remains the top choice for adventurers, survivalists, and service members today. This iconic knife features a 7-inch straight-edge blade crafted from legendary 1095 Cro-Van steel. As a result, it provides exceptional toughness and impressive edge retention. Furthermore, the blade’s black protective coating resists corrosion and minimizes reflection. The handle, constructed from stacked leather washers, offers a secure and comfortable grip that molds to your hand over time. This model includes a high-quality brown leather sheath, proudly embossed with the USMC “Eagle, Globe & Anchor” logo. Whether you are adding to a collection or equipping yourself for the outdoors, this knife is an essential tool. For more information on their full lineup, visit the official KA-BAR website. If you prefer a serrated edge for cutting synthetic materials, we also highly recommend the KA-BAR USMC Utility, Serrated Edge 1218. To properly honor and safeguard this historic blade, consider displaying it in the Tomar’s 1431-AB presentation case.
