KA-BAR, Full Size USMC Serrated Edge Knife -
The most famous knife in the World gets updated with a serrated edge to better cut synthetic and looped materials.
Serrated Blade -
A serrated blade has a cutting edge that has many small points of contact with the material being cut. By having less contact area than a smooth blade, the applied force at each point of contact is relatively greater and the points of contact are at a sharper angle to the material being cut.
Epoxy Powder Coating -
A coating process that protects blades from corrosion and also makes them non-reflective.

This is a very good knife
This is a very good knife. Very well balanced and it has some good weight to it. The grip is ergonomic and overall the knife just feels very good to have in your hand. This knife sells for $80 at the surplus near my home. I got it $64 shipped. Not bad.

A good knife for everyday use. Very sharp out of the box and easy to put the edge back on it. There are better knives out there.

Full tang construction with the tang peened over the end of the handgrip. Sharp enough out of the box to shave paper. Don't think I've ever bought better for the money.

This knive is great and I cut my self playing with this on the first day (that a good thing). This 'dirk' will go through anything and slice it to. The only bad parts is that the sheath gets cut up every time you put the blade in and the knife is only sharpen on one side.

i bought this knife from
i bought this knife from the Navel Academy in Maryland and can not be more impressed by the quality of this knife. The serrations are very sharp but i never could get a nice edge on the blade(due to my sucky sharpening skills). The great thing is that if your relying on this knife for a fighter in any situation that u are some distance away but are out of ammo for any reason(etc.) u can accurately through this knife with ease and don't have to worry about it breaking. I love mine so much im buying a tank with rubber handle and a kabar heavy bowie
