A hunting knife stylistically reminiscent of early 20th century design. The head with a Straight Point profile is made of high-gloss polished DIN 1.4116 steel.
Newly noteworthy is the distinctive handle consisting of pressed discsóof buffalo leather. The steel hilt protects the hand from accidentally slipping on the blade. In the back of the handle there is asteel head, which can be used as a makeshift hammer for field work.
A leather scabbard is included.

Ka-Bar is a brand whose history dates back to the late 19th century, and it gained real fame during World War II, when the Fighting Utility model was officially adopted by the US Marine Corps. This durable and versatile knife quickly became a legend, proving itself both in combat and in the everyday 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 strength of this symbol, the company officially changed its name to Ka-Bar Knives Inc., and its products are still regarded as a benchmark of reliability. An important chapter in the brand's history is also its cooperation with Ethan Becker, which resulted in the Becker series appreciated by users, combining practical solutions with a modern approach to knife design.
