Ka-Bar Dog's Head Utility Knife

Ka-Bar Dog's Head Knife

The Ka-Bar Dog's Head Utility Knife is a full-size fixed blade built on the classic Ka-Bar pattern: a clip point blade, a straight guard and a stacked leather handle. It takes its name from the dog's head emblem etched near the guard and stamped into the sheath. It suits camp chores, field use and collectors who want the traditional Ka-Bar look on their belt.

Features

• Clip Point Blade — The back of the blade sweeps down to a fine, controllable tip that handles piercing and detail cuts, while the long straight edge does the heavy cutting.
• Black Blade Finish — A dark, non-reflective finish covers the blade from guard to tip.
• Fuller — A long groove ground into the flat of the blade, sometimes called a blood groove, lightens the blade without giving up its width.
• Stacked Leather Handle — Leather rings stacked along the tang and separated by black spacers give a grooved grip that fills the hand.
• Straight Crossguard — A black guard between handle and blade helps stop your hand from sliding forward onto the edge.
• Pommel With Lanyard Hole — The black butt cap closes off the handle and is drilled for a lanyard or cord.
• Ka-Bar Markings — One side of the blade is stamped KA-BAR OLEAN NY and the other carries the etched dog's head emblem.
• Brown Leather Sheath — The stitched and riveted sheath has a belt loop, the stamped dog's head logo, and a small hole at the tip.
• Snap Retention Strap — A leather strap passes over the handle and fastens with a snap to keep the knife seated in the sheath.

Handle And Sheath

The handle uses the stacked leather construction that Ka-Bar knives are known for, with black spacers at each ring and a black guard and pommel at either end. The knife ships with a matching brown leather sheath. Its belt loop carries the knife upright, and the snap strap wraps the handle just below the pommel.
