High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! KA-BAR was a fighting and utility knife issued to American armed forces. KA-BAR is also the name of a related manufacturing company most known for the same 11-3/4-inch fighting and utility Bowie knife adopted by the United States Marine Corps and United States Navy as the USN Fighting Knife Mark II. A typical KA-BAR knife has a 7" clip point blade and weighed 1/4lb. The KA-BAR fighting knife is made of 1095 carbon steel and features a leather-washer or synthetic handle made of Kraton. The name "KA-BAR" came to be after the company received a poorly written English letter in which the author wrote how the company's knife saved his life after he was attacked by a bear and his gun failed to kill it. All that was legible was "k a bar", and the company adopted that as their trademark. In 1942, soon after the United States' entry into World War II, American troops experienced the problematic nature of the M1917/1918 and Mark I trench knives that they were issued initially and, realizing the need for knives suited to trench warfare, a design was chosen from a catalog of hunting gear.
