Kabar Short Fighting Utility Knife (Straight or Serrated)
The Kabar Short Fighting Utility Knife is a compact and versatile fixed-blade knife designed for tactical and utility use. Manufactured from weapon-grade 1095 Cro-Van steel, this knife is constructed for serious slicing applications and utilities. The blade has a clip-point shape with a partially serrated edge, making it suitable for a wide range of cutting tasks, including slicing, piercing, and cutting through tough materials. This makes it an ideal pick for any outdoor adventure.
It has a short but comfortable handle, which is manufactured from Kraton G material that promises a non-slip grip. This allows for greater control and manoeuvrability of the knife. Best of all, the knife is equipped with a pommel at the bottom, which enables breaking glass and other objects during emergency situations. It is available in straight or serrated configurations and comes with a leather or hard plastic case.
