KA1214-BRK USA Fighting Knife, Steel

Ka-Bar never disappoints me. This knife is top quality as either a self defense knife, utility knife, or camping knife. It is very sharp and strong and has a comfortable grip. The hard Sheryl is a must have and protects the knife from any outside damage. It removes from the sheesh with ease and looks badass!

Obviously not something you carry around in your pocket, but this knife has seen more utility use from me than any other knife Ive ever owned. Its very sharp and reliable, cant go wrong with Ka-Bar!

Excellent blade, quality construction, made in USA...if it’s good enough for the military...it’s more than good enough for me! This knife has quickly become my new favorite “bowie” style blade!

awesome Knife exceptional service from the company ...... extremely satified

ANOTHER GREAT PIECE OF USA MADE QUALITY...MARINE, NAVY, AIRFORCE USE EM, HAD ONE IN THE CORPS PREVIOUSLY, CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE GOOD DEPENDABLITY AND QUALITY RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE SHARP, AND SOLID AND LIKE MACHETE FOM ONTARIO, AND SP8, LIFETIME WARRANTY NO HASSLES

Im no knife enthusiast. I bought it because I feel everyone should own one. I bought this one in particular because its a popular brand and the color matches all of my weaponry. Its very durable (as far as I can tell), factory sharpness isnt bad (cuts through flesh no problem), looks mean (really mean).

Awesome knife awesome price

My husband loves this knife and has carried it almost everywhere since he got it. It’s been great!

This knife is going to last longer than I will.

As the other reviews have already covered repeatedly, this is a great knife. I use it on my camping trips and it has been used to split fire wood into kindling because we didnt have a hatchet, as well as cut the meat and vegetables for dinner, since we also forgot kitchen cutlery on that trip. Its a strong, tough, versatile knife. With that said, the factory edge on the blade is horrible. Maybe the blade is intentionally honed with an angle from 30 degrees on the main blade to 45 degrees at the tip, but that makes it nearly impossible to sharpen. I had to fix the nearly 45 degree bevel near the tip of the knife with a metal file before I could even begin to sharpen it. It then took me well over 30 minutes of sharpening with the roughest stone in my Lansky sharpening set to get the blade to a consistent 30 degree angle, and I still see a few spots near the tip that need more work. But I was then able to progress to smoother stones and produce a decent, consistent, sharp edge. But it is now ready to go again and stays in my camping supplies bag.
