Ka-Bar Short Black Knife with Kydex Sheath Model 1258

Following the success and popularity of the famous Ka-Bar USMC knife, and its later 3/4 size brother, Ka-Bar introduced an updated version, replacing the leather handle with one of Kraton G® elastomer with the surface feel of rubber. The 5-1/4" blade of high carbon 1095 tool steel features a black epoxy powder coat, with a 'USA' tang stamp, and the knife has a black steel guard and butt cap - Ka-Bar Short Black Knife
The knife, purchased in 2018, has not been used or home-sharpened, and comes in its original black box and includes a black Kydex® hard sheath. Proudly made in the USA.
