Ka-Bar Short Tanto - excellent knife!

The Ka-Bar Tanto exceeded my expectations. It has a VERY sharp edge and has held that edge despite a few camping trips where it was used for everything from shaving tinder to batoning kindling. Despite the treatment, it's good as new. Kydex sheath is well worth the few extra bucks...it's well designed and has great retention of the knife. It's a high quality, made in USA, knife for an outstanding price. Well worth 3 times as much and holds and edge better than my +$100 knives. Size is perfect for a take everywhere knife. Perfect for my flight bag on the wilderness flying trips. Best knife I've ever purchased for what I needs and uses. Who says you can't get a quality US-made knife for a good price anymore?

As its name implies, this is a fighting knife.

As its name implies, this is a fighting knife. I keep it as a non-discreet backup to my sidearm and its on my hip when ever I go camping. Will shave the hair off my arms.

KaBar Short Version Tanto

Great blade and very nice sheath. The handle is made well but a little too small for my average-sized hand. Would be ideal for a female.

Good LBV Knife

I was looking for a Plan Jane fixed blade field knife that would not break the bank but was something of quality along with reliability. I wanted another KA-BAR and when I saw the Short Version Tanto blade I liked the way it looked right a way but then when I saw the cost I had to get it. I was not disappointed when it arrived. Except for the Sheath, It is a solid black plastic. It would be nice if it came in sand brown, OD green or foliage anything but reflective black. It is not a cut down machete Hollywood style knife so if that is what you’re looking for you will be disappointed. If you want a good solid fixed blade field knife this is it.
