KA-BAR is excited to introduce the much anticipated John Ek Commando Knife Co. product, the Ek Model 4. This updated version of the old jungle fighting knife is made from 1095 Cro-Van steel and features a parkerized double-edged blade measuring in at 6.45" in length. The textured glass-filled nylon handles are deeply milled for grip and are attached with traditional X-head fasteners and it has an S-shaped guard to prevent you from sliding forward onto the blade. The US-made Celcon sheath is a friction fit design with multiple tie-down points and a nylon retaining strap and belt loop. Every component of this knife is proudly made in the USA and this is both a great knife and a great value.
Excellent fighting knife. Very stout. Sheathe is good. Secure lock-in. Push tab down and blade easily releases. Super sharp. with just a tad of it is even better. Razor. This not in general a EDC, but great for collecting and carrying if so desired for security. Feels great unhand. scales are long. if you lanyard it choke down and swing with leverage. Wicked...Priced very well. All around great quality.
KA-BAR John Ek Commando Ek Model 4 Fixed 6.45" Double Edge 1095 Dagger Blade, GFN Handles, Celcon Sheath
Super sharp easy to sharpen not the highest quality steel but not expensive either. Feels great in the hand. Well balanced. This would do very well in a fight I think. Not too heavy.

Pros: None
Cons: None
Used as New
Arrived with rubber band around box, no intact internal packaging like the ones I have purchased from other dealers. Both sides significantly scuffed. Paper remnants on one edge (looked like it was used to cut paper). The paper sheath cover for the blade was for a different model. I did not bother trying to return/exchange as I am done with Knife Center. Second of the three orders I have placed with KC that arrived in damaged state. This knife was clearly used (perhaps a return not checked before restocking). Glad I found out about KC before I ordered something very expensive. Cannot recommend KC.
