Kabar Knife with Sheath: 1217 USMC Fighting /Utility Knife
Shortly after the start of WWII, KA_BAR began working with the Marin Quartermaster to design a fighting knife for the United States Marine Corps. Soon, the production was underway on the fighting /Utility knife that would make the KA-BAR name legendary.
Legend has it that the name KA-BAR dates back to the 1900's, from a fur trapper testimonial. The Fur Trapper wrote that whilst out trapping his gun jammed leaving only with his knife to kill a wounded bear that was attacking him.
He thanked the company for making the quality knife that helped him kill a bear, but all that was legible as a name on the letter was K a bar.
Honoured by this testimonial the company adopted the phrase KA-BAR as their trademark.
