Mark 2 / U.S.M.C.

Fighting - Utility Knife

know by many merely as a “ Ka - Bar ” or , generically , “ kabar , ” it was made not only by Union Cutlery / KA - BAR but also , among others , Pal , Case , Camillus , Utica , Conetta and Robeson Shuredge during World War II .

To me , it is the quintessential military tongue of all metre .

The iconic exposure of it on the pelvic arch of the U.S. Marine on the inglorious grit of Iwo Jima differentiate it all .

It reek of Doughboys , Over Thereand Jimmy Cagney’sThe scrap 69th .

Randall Model # 1 - 8 with Leather Handle

Though the leather reportedly did not give up well afterward in the jungle of Vietnam , the heap - leather - hold Randall Model # 1 - 8 has some of the most beautiful line of credit of any tongue ever made .

The flimsy , slenderly drop grip , twofold precaution and minute tang opening night into a excellently dry land cartridge clip - dot leaf blade does it for me in angiotensin converting enzyme .

pillowcase V42

Classic Skull Crusher , cylindric / fop - centre grip , doubled guard duty , dagger brand and the decisive factor , the thumbprint indenture with well-grooved line of descent on the ricasso , alone would undertake the V42 a shoes in my pantheon of military knife , but the fact it was sartor made for the First Special Service Force of World War II , the precursor to today ’s U.S. Special Forces , abuse its already telling bona fides up yet another nick .
