Review: This knife is great. Its sharp and long enough to do some ... - I used this while working as an armed guard. This knife is great. Its sharp and long enough to do some damage if needed. It fits well in between your duty belt. There are two straps with a button snap style of buckle. It should fit onto two inch belts. There are holes on the sheath to instal the metal TDI clip if you prefer that. For my purpose I found the straps worked fine. The shape of the knife itself works well for combatives. Whether you're holding it in a reverse grip or a regular grip it fits comfortably and its easy to retain. I wore it on the Velcro portion of my duty belt on a left side appendix carry then placed the main duty belt over top of it. This gave me access to it with both hands if needed for either firearm retention and an attack or a block an attack depending on the situation. It was out of the way and the grip was large enough to grab in a high stress situation. The only drawback I found was, if you ever put on weight or have a large stomach it may affect the way you carry it. I gained some weight while working that complex and the knife became unconformable to carry. All in all, if your physiology allows you to carry this knife I highly recommend it. It's out of the way when you don't need it and always available when you do. It's high quality and a must have if you work in a dangerous area.
Review: An excellent knife! - First and foremost, some say this is for LEO/not for civilians, but I'd disagree. I own the smaller version and this larger version. My take is, if you aren't stupid, then it could be a good knife for you. I practiced with this knife, and I'm confident I can use it well if needed. What some fail to realize is as long as you know enough about this blade to not injure yourself, the only person who could accurately defend against this knife is someone with training. The blade is incredibly sharp and is incredibly sturdy. The blade is the full tang and is well designed ergonomically. To note, you can equip this knife with the TDI belt clip to use it on thinner belts. Can be had from desertcart for 12$But I will say this knife does take a bit of force to release from the sheath so even with the TDI clip, it will pull up on your belt significantly far; even with a thicker webbed belt. https://www.desertcart.com/Ka-Bar-Metal-Belt-Clip-Knives/dp/B00180D1ES/ref=pd_sim_1?pd_rd_w=BwkNy&pf_rd_p=dde9b612-c71c-4550-8f12-758d90eade9e&pf_rd_r=1RZ6CJBWPTZ0916S0XY8&pd_rd_r=763b923b-4076-4516-9286-d383a9d55e91&pd_rd_wg=BbTkz&pd_rd_i=B00180D1ES&psc=1.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the sheath be worn horizontally without the purchase of addictional items like paracord?**
A: Yes, it can be. You don't need to buy anything, All you need to do is to unscrew the plastic sheath, reposition it (the sheath), and screw it back on again. Now your KaBar will be in the horizontal position.

**Q: Are the straps on the sheath compatible with MOLLE webbing?**
A: I answered yes by mistake.  They have the sheath with the clip and the molle backing. If u get the molle it will work fine. If u get the clip for inside the waste carry it wont fit between the webbing

**Q: Is this actually made in the U.S.?**
A: Yes it is and very good quality enjoy

**Q: Does it come with a sheath?**
A: Yes it does and the sheath itself is very sturdy

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recommended by a US Marine.
*by C***N on March 17, 2020*

I love this knife. I am a US Marine and I am stationed in a not so friendly environment. I carry this with me everywhere as well as a folder. I usually carried a benchmade but didnt like how much it would show when I was trying to carry it concealed in stores or restaurants. So I bought this one and the smaller one for my wife. I've had several years of training with knives even before the Marine Corps but that was all with straight blades, but I got used to this one very fast and am able to deploy it with ease. It doesnt print much, it's easy to get used to and deploy, and feels great in the hand. Definitely recommend this knife. It is top quality and one fo the best for EDC on the market.
