Black Knife - Hard Sheath

The KA-BAR Full Size Black Straight Edge Knife (1213) brings a sleek, tactical look to the world’s most recognizable fixed blade. Retaining the time-tested design trusted by U.S. servicemen for generations, this version updates the classic with modern materials and a non-reflective black finish—perfect for both field and utility use.

Heritage with Modern Performance

The 7” high-carbon steel blade is epoxy powder-coated for superb corrosion resistance and durability. Tests prove this finish is more rugged than ever, ensuring long-lasting performance in the harshest environments. The iconic oval handle shape remains but has been upgraded with Kraton G®, a synthetic material that resists sweat, water, chemicals, and heavy wear, while maintaining a secure, slip-resistant grip.

Sheath and Carry

Each knife comes with a hard plastic MOLLE-compatible sheath for versatile mounting options on belts, packs, or vests. Practical, dependable, and made to endure, the KA-BAR Full Size Black Straight Edge combines the strength of the original with modern refinements for today’s military, outdoor, and survival needs.
