The KA-BAR Fighter 1271 adds serrations to a modernized classic combat design. KA-BAR manufactures this rugged 8 inch fixed blade in the USA from legendary 1095 Cro-Van steel. Consequently, it provides the durability and edge retention needed for serious tactical field use.
Specifically, the partially serrated blade of the KA-BAR Fighter 1271 easily cuts through tough materials like heavy rope or webbing. The black Kraton G handle ensures a secure, non-slip grip even in adverse weather conditions. It includes a durable hard plastic sheath designed to be resistant to salt water and humidity.
If you prefer a straight edge without serrations, check out the KA-BAR Fighter 1269. You can also learn more about their manufacturing process at the official KA-BAR homepage.
