The KA-BAR D2 Extreme 1283 pairs premium steel with a classic leather sheath. KA-BAR manufactures this 7 inch partially serrated fixed blade in the USA from D2 tool steel. Consequently, it provides outstanding edge retention and wear resistance for demanding field use.
Specifically, the serrated edge of the KA-BAR D2 Extreme 1283 powers through tough materials like heavy rope or webbing. The black Kraton G handle ensures a secure, non-slip grip in all weather conditions. It includes a traditional black leather sheath for secure, quiet carry.
