Full description
The KA-BAR BK9 Combat Bowie is the result of a successful collaboration between knife designer Ethan Becker and KA-BAR. The knife is designed to be as strong as possible and you can tell that by its weight. This knife can definitely take a beating! The blade is made of 1095 carbon steel, which does not make it stainless. Luckily, the blade has a black coating making maintenance a lot easier.

A master of robustness. Unbreakable. Excellent steel. Excellent chopper. Chops 2-inch diameter branches in a blink. Not very good piercer because of the very thick tip. IMHO an excellent heavy-duty forest knife more than a "combat" knife (but who really uses knife for combat?)

This is a fantastic bowie. If you are used to the standard 7-inch/18 cm combat knife, this one will feel much bigger at first. Worry not, for that impression goes away in a few days of use. This is a really good blade, full tang, heavy duty, versatile. Surprisingly usable for finer work too, as it handles great. The stock handle is fine for most day-to-day tasks, but slippery for combat duty. You will need to mod the handle for such kind of applications.
