Ka-Bar Knives
The legend of how Ka-Bar knives were named tells of a fur trapper who used his knife to kill a bear when his gun jammed. His handwriting was so horrible, all that could be deciphered was "k a bar," which later became the company's trademark.

Personalized Ka-bar USMC Tactical/Utility Knife w/Leather Sheath
Marc S. from San Diego, CA
The sheath is superior to the leather sheath provided with the US Army model. I liked the serrated portion for cutting rope, but blade was too thick in front third along cutting edge which will make it difficult to sharpen. This may have been only on the knife I received, because I also got the US Army one and blade geometry was fine on that one.

Ka-bar Knives USMC Tactical Knife, 7 in., Serrated, Nylon Sheath
Caleb L. from Jacksonville, FL
I bought this machete a while ago. The sheath is nice and durable, as is the machete. Since this blade is 1085 steel, it should be able to handle wood. The weight is well balanced and helps with chopping and swinging.

It is a good knife but the sheath did dull the blade.

Soon after its introduction in the mid-1920's, the KA-BAR trademark became widely known and respected. There have been many versions of how the KA-BAR name came to be, but all evidence points to a letter received from a fur trapper. This particular fur trapper's testimonial turned out to be the most significant ever received by the company.
He wrote, in very rough English, that his gun had jammed and that he had therefore relied on his knife to kill a wounded bear that was attacking him. In thanking the company for their quality product the trapper described using his knife to kill the bear. All that was legible of his scrawled writing was "k a bar". The company was so honored by this testimonial that they adopted this phrase and used it as their trademark, KA-BAR.
