Review: Ka-Barr need I say more - Great quality blade. You can never go wrong with one of theses blades on your side.
Review: Razor sharp out of the box! - This is a great knife to have in certain situations. One episode of Myth-Busters (on Youtube) showed how a knife can be beneficial in a gun fight. There are other benefits of knives over guns: they are quieter than guns, have fewer parts that can fail (the name “KA-BAR” derived from a letter from a hunter whose gun had failed in Killing A BeAR), are lighter, waterproof, do not require ammunition, do not require a lot of skill to use, are relatively cheaper, and won't put bullets through walls to potentially harm the innocent, like a gun could. I’m not pitting knives against firearms; I’m just saying there is a time when a knife is the preferred tool. Concerning this particular knife, one Youtube blogger suggested putting O-rings in the slots of the handle of this knife, in order to “make it grippier,” but I find that the cut-outs of the leather handle actually make the handle plenty grippy. The leather sheath matches the color of the knife handle nicely, and fits the knife perfectly, especially the snap flap that holds the handle. This knife will definitely do everything it was designed to do, and will do it in style.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ka-Barr need I say more

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing knife. Well-earned reputation.
*by P***Q on April 24, 2012*

This knife is built like a tank. It's heavy, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. There's a lot of metal behind the cutting edge, which makes it easy to use as a chopper. The blade is tough and it keeps its edge for a very long time. The serrations are great, not too agressive so it glides through material, but jagged enough to saw though it. The serration teeth are rounded so you don't have to worry about chipping or denting delicate tips. The leather sheath is basic but very functional. The leather stretches when inserting the knife. This firmly secures the knife even without using the leather snap (although I strongly recommend using it) but I feel it may reduce the life of the sheath. Unfortunately, when I bought this knife, I meant to buy the straight edge version not the serrated version. Nothing against the knife, I just prefer a straight edge. I sold it and bought the straight edge version. Whatever version you get, you won't be disappointed. Now, that's not to say this knife doesn't have any flaws. There is no such thing as a perfect metal for a knife. The blade is carbon steel and it will rust if kept in very humid conditions. The black coating on it helps prevent rust, but that will eventually wear off. Keep this knife dry, clean it after using it. Leather will also be negatively affected by humidity so keep that in mind. None of these flaws prevent the knife from lasting a lifetime and more.
