USMC Combat Fighting Knife

Features

1. 1095 Carbon Steel Blade — Forged from rugged 1095 high-carbon steel and hardened to 55–58 HRC for proven edge retention and easy field sharpening.
2. 7-Inch Clip Point Blade — A 7" plain-edge clip point with saber grind handles thrusting, slashing, and general utility work with equal authority.
3. Zinc Phosphate Finish — Non-reflective black phosphate coating protects the carbon steel from corrosion and eliminates glare in the field.
4. Stacked Leather Handle — Classic weatherproofed stacked leather washer grip delivers the traditional USMC fighting knife feel with a sure hold in wet or gloved hands.
5. Steel Guard and Pommel — Cross guard and pinned pommel anchor the handle stack and reinforce the knife for hard use and prying tasks.

7. Genuine Leather Sheath — Includes a USMC-pattern leather belt sheath with retention strap to keep the blade secure on the hip.
8. Made in the USA — Built by Ontario Knife Company in Franklinville, New York, the same maker that has supplied U.S. military cutlery for decades.
