Red's Review of KA-BAR Knives Fighting-Utility Fixed Blade w/ Brown Leather Sheath
Ok so I will admit that this is the first really nice knife I've ever bought for myself and was pretty excited about it. Before I got this I only had a pretty cheap pocket knife from a local store and one fixed blade given to me by my dad that he got from his dad that I don't like to use for heavy duty tasks as it is really old. So I decided to ask him what he would recommend as a really good utility knife and he said that he had always used his KA-BAR after he got out of the marines (he's a Vietnam vet) so that's what I decided I wanted. Upon receiving the knife I decided to test if it came shaving sharp which it actually did. trying to wipe off my bit of arm hair off the blade I actually cut my finger pretty good in like half a second without even noticing at first. I then decided to test it out a bit to have some fun. I stood a full water bottle on my porch and in one swing it cut it in half and cut so cleanly that the bottom of the bottle didn't even move. At this point I was already happy with it but then decided to test it on some wood and this thing goes through hard oak like its butter. Now I'm sure that this isn't the absolute best knife out there but it is a great place to start from though maybe a little big but I wanted it for utility and camping so I opted for the full size version. though I must admit that I don't think the sheath will be as resilient as the actual knife but it works for now and hey I might be wrong. If you actually read through all my rambling Yes I would highly recommend this knife for anybody looking for a good sturdy knife.
