Ka-Bar Mark 1 Knife - Straight Edge

Navy Pattern Fixed Blade

The Ka-Bar Mark 1 is a compact fixed-blade knife, meaning the blade does not fold and has no hinge to loosen or fail. It follows the US Navy Mark 1 pattern, with USN MK1 stamped on the blade and U.S.N. embossed on the sheath. It is sized for general utility work like cutting line, opening crates, and camp chores, and it suits collectors and anyone who wants a classic belt knife they can actually use.

Features

• Straight Edge — The plain, unserrated edge is easy to sharpen on a standard stone and cuts cleanly in a single pass.
• Clip Point Blade — The spine drops toward a fine point, which helps with piercing and detail work while leaving a long straight belly for slicing.
• Black Blade Finish — A dark, matte finish covers the full blade and cuts down on glare.
• USN MK1 Marking — The ricasso, the flat unsharpened section just ahead of the guard, carries the USN MK1 stamp.
• Stacked Leather Handle — Rings of leather pressed together and shaped into a waisted grip give a warm, secure hold that fills the hand.
• Black Guard And Pommel — A flat crossguard stops your hand from sliding onto the edge, and a rounded black pommel caps the end of the grip.
• Brown Leather Sheath — Stitched and riveted along its seam, the sheath is embossed U.S.N. on the face and has a small drain hole near the tip.
• Snap Retention Strap — A leather strap with a snap closure passes over the guard to keep the knife seated in the sheath.
• Belt Loop Carry — A folded leather loop at the top of the sheath slides onto a standard belt for hip carry.

Build And Carry

The blade, guard, handle, and pommel make up one fixed assembly with no moving parts. The leather sheath is double stitched with rivets along the edge to protect the seam from the blade, and the snap strap and belt loop let you carry the knife on the hip ready to draw. The leather handle and sheath both take a light coat of leather conditioner if they dry out over time.
