I like that short ka-bar. Looks like a handy size.

I have a Ka-Bar and it's the sh*t! I love that knife- and it added a bit of intimidation factor while working among locals while I was in Afghanistan. [Beer]

Sykes-Fairbain. Still the standard for edged weapon fighting.

So do you want to stab, slice, or chop?

KA-BAR.

yes, as a former Marine, I'm prejudiced. But the balance and feel can't be beat (for me - I know it's a personal choice). If you want to check one out, let me know.

Try the Gerber LMF II, the Ontario OKC3S, or the classic KA-BAR. I have all three, love all three, they are all kinda similar but still different enough.

Yes. [Coffee]

At the affordable end, the Greco MST. About $125.

A little up the scales, Mad Dog ATAK. North side of $1400.
