The KA-BAR Becker Kephart BK62 is a faithful tribute to the legendary woodsman Horace Kephart, modernized with KA-BAR’s rugged construction. Ethan Becker designed this knife to capture the spirit of traditional early 20th-century bushcraft tools. Consequently, the Kephart excels at versatile camp tasks, food preparation, and wilderness utility with its simple, efficient design.

Specifically, the Kephart features a full-tang 5.25-inch drop point blade made from polished 1095 Cro-Van steel, giving it a classic look while providing exceptional toughness. The contoured walnut handle scales are comfortable and traditionally styled, secured by brass pins. It includes a high-quality traditional leather sheath for classic belt carry.

If you prefer a contemporary fixed blade with a distinctly tactical heritage, check out the KA-BAR Ek Commando Knife EK13. You can also learn more about the heritage of the Becker Knife and Tool line at the official KA-BAR homepage.
