K-BAR1213 KA-BAR Utility Knife Kraton Plain
Since 1898, KA-BAR has been forging knives that outperform expectations. The K-BAR1213 Kraton Utility Knife carries on that legacy, blending the classic fighting-knife silhouette with modern Kraton® G handles for unrivaled grip and comfort. Whether you’re clearing brush on a backcountry trek, field-dressing game at dawn, or tackling a roadside emergency, this knife is engineered to excel.
Crafted from 1095 Cro-Van steel with a matte black corrosion-resistant finish, the 17.7 cm clip-point blade delivers razor-sharp cuts and reliable piercing power.
