A Nebraska native, Steve Johnson is an adrenaline junkie that has loved tools since he could walk.....happiest when he's chasing whatever critters are in season, Steve has been building knives and other tools to make his outdoor activities more enjoyable for the past two decades.
All of Steve's knives started with an idea and the desire to make a task easier or safer, some ideas were his own, and others came as special request from friends that range from cowboys to professionals throughout the military and contracting world. Knives and other tools are always built with function first and foremost. Function dictates form, and Steve designs his knives to take on the intent of that hand that grips them.
If at any time your knife fails to perform due to manufacturer’s defect, we will replace the product with the same model or the most similar model to it from our current product line.

The name originated from a testimonial sent by a fur trapper. His rifle had failed, forcing him to use his knife to defend himself against a wounded bear. The letter was difficult to read, but the phrase "k a bar" (for kill a bear) was clear. The company adopted KA-BAR as its trademark in 1923.
The most famous model is the USMC Fighting/Utility Knife. It was adopted by the United States Marine Corps in 1942 during World War II. This knife became a legendary piece of equipment for its reliability and versatile design.
