Great knife, a really good piece of steel. Thick blade. Good ergonomics. Perfect for the forest. I recommend it.
Impressively robust and meticulously built, the BK10 Crewman survival knife from the Becker Knives series is engineered by Ethan Becker.
Featuring a clip point blade forged from a single piece of 1095 class Cro-Van steel, this knife is finished with a matte black coating to reduce glare and resist corrosion. Optimized for demanding field tasks, it easily handles chopping through thick branches. The blade boasts a substantial 5 mm thickness.
The handle utilizes Zytel®, an almost indestructible patented material produced by the reputable DuPont company. A pronounced hilt guard and an oversized, textured thumb rest ensure hand security and prevent accidental slips onto the blade.
A heavy-duty polyester sheath in black is provided, equipped with a belt loop, MOLLE/PALS compatible attachments for securing to tactical vests or backpacks, and a Velcro-fastened accessory pocket.

Manufacturer Ka-Bar, USA
Militaria.pl is a premium dealer of Ka-Bar.
Ka-Bar is a brand whose history dates back to the late 19th century, and which gained real fame during World War II, when the Fighting Utility model was officially adopted by the US Marine Corps. The durable and versatile knife quickly became legendary, proving itself both in combat and in the daily tasks of soldiers. The name Ka-Bar itself comes from the 1920s, when a trapper described in a letter how he managed to “kill a bear” with a Union Cutlery knife. In 1952, wanting to emphasize the power of this symbol, the company officially changed its name to Ka-Bar Knives Inc., and its products are still considered a model of reliability today. An important chapter in the brand's history is also its collaboration with Ethan Becker, which resulted in the Becker series, highly valued by users, combining practical solutions with a modern approach to knife design.
