What don't you need a kabar for? They're awesome. I always take one camping for general work.

Was just curiuos. Iono why, but OP doesn't seem like the type that would use it. Maybe I'm confusing him with another member.

I have a kabar in my bug out bag but generally use a gerber hatchet for woodsy stuff.

It's a knife for killing people...


So, unless you need to kill people, why do you need it again?

Is this a good quality knife that will last a while?

I've gone through a few of these- they tend to last through a couple of shanked sternums, but they wear out more quickly than other knives.

It is THE knife.

:thumbsup:

This, except mine is a Leek, not a Vapor.


i have a Leek and love it. kershaw makes nice stuff.

ka-bar is nice but unless you have a decent reason to get one, I wouldnt bother.

Redfraggle has an awesome knife but Ill be damned if I can remember who made it, pricey though, iirc

they cant hold an edge worth shit.

they're mostly good for digging. grunt work you wouldnt subject your better knives to.

(this is gathered from conversations with the SERE instructors i talked to. i've never used one.)

the knives i use are mostly buck, with leatherman being the only multitool i use.

that's one of the potential uses of it, but it's not exclusively designed for that.

Expensive knife? Benchmade is the first thing that comes to mind.

edit: found it

its an Emerson Commander BTS, it opens as you pull it out of your pocket (theres a video)
