Combat Kukri

The KA-BAR Combat Kukri (1280) takes inspiration from its larger sibling, the classic Kukri Machete, and scales it into a more manageable, combat-ready size. At about 80% the size of the original, this knife delivers the same chopping and clearing power in a lighter, easier-to-carry profile. Perfect for both utility and tactical applications, it’s built to handle brush, branches, and demanding field tasks without weighing you down.

Balanced Strength and Portability

Weighing just under a pound, the Combat Kukri strikes the ideal balance between chopping ability and carry convenience. The distinct kukri blade shape provides powerful forward-weighted cuts, making it effective at clearing small trees, splitting wood, and handling survival chores. Its size also makes it a practical option for combat or duty carry, where mobility and effectiveness are equally important.

Durable Sheath and Carry Options

Each knife comes with a MOLLE-compatible heavy-duty polyester sheath, offering secure storage and versatile mounting to packs, belts, or gear rigs. With its compact build, powerful performance, and field-ready sheath, the KA-BAR Combat Kukri is an indispensable tool for outdoorsmen, survivalists, and professionals alike.
