When the U.S. entered World War II, Marines were issued KA-BAR's newly-designed utility / fighting knife. They depended on these knives for many tasks... pounding tent stakes, driving nails, opening ration cans and digging foxholes... not to mention defending lives. Now you can get a grip on the same uncompromising KA-BAR military surplus quality The Greatest Generation came to rely on.

KA-BAR's Short Black Tanto Knife arms you with the power to pierce through the toughest materials! Its high-carbon, non-reflective fixed-blade Knife is finished with an epoxy powder-coat that has been proven to be tougher-than-tough during tests at the KA-BAR "lab". Nearly impervious to sweat, chemicals, water and wear. Teamed with a Kraton G® handle. Straight or serrated blade.

The military surplus details:

• Blade length 5 ¹/4"; Overall length 9 ³/8"
• 20° edge angle
• 1095 Cro-Van steel
• Hollow grind
• Knife made in the USA. Leather sheath imported.
