Product Overview
A full-size blade and a non-slip handle give the Rothco KA-BAR Full Size All-purpose Knife - Black a straightforward, work-focused design. Modeled after the well-known U.S.M.C. knife, it combines that traditional profile with a black blade and a black Kraton polymer handle. It belongs in an outdoor equipment setup where a substantial knife is preferred over a compact pocket tool.
A 7-inch blade with a clip-point profile
The blade measures 7 inches, with an overall knife length of 11 3/4 inches. Those dimensions are worth considering when planning your camping or outdoor gear: this is a full-size knife, so allow room for it rather than expecting the footprint of a small utility knife.
Its clip-point shape gives the blade a distinct, narrowed tip for work that calls for more precise placement. The blade is made from 1095 Cro-Van steel and has a flat grind, with a specified edge angle of 20 degrees. Together, these details provide useful reference points for customers comparing blade profiles, steel types, and edge geometry.
Non-slip grip and included leather sheath
The Kraton polymer handle provides a non-slip gripping surface and is intended to remain comfortable when a task calls for a firm hold. The all-black finish extends across the blade and handle, giving the knife a consistent appearance without changing its traditional silhouette.
A leather sheath is included, providing a dedicated place to cover the blade between uses. For a knife of this size, that is an important part of keeping it organized with the rest of your outdoor equipment.
