Making a quality KA-BAR product requires the talent of experienced craftspeople performing dozens of processes with precision and skill. Each knife undergoes specific manufacturing processes to ensure corrosion resistance, strength, edge holding ability, and an out-of-the-box razor sharp cutting edge.

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.

I carried one on me during Desert Shield/Desert Storm. I ate with it, slept with it, and went to the latrine at night with it. I never had to use it in a defensive situation, but it was assuring to know at night when I was sleeping or doing guard duty that it was there if needed!

I purchased several knifes from your' company in the last two months. The US Army Ka-Bar was sent to Iraq for my nephew with the 82nd (Abn). The quality of Ka-Bar has always been the standard of combat knives. Your website had my knives delivered within 3-4 days. I thank you.

Knife was sent to Iraq for my Nephew serving in the 82nd ABN. I know the quality of these knives from my Dad who was in the Navy & many Korean and fellow Vietnam Veterans. Thank you for the quick shipping.
