I own several Ka-Bar's and this one is very nice. The knife and sheath are well made; and I like the silver blade. Reminds me of my uncle's Ka-Bar from WWII South Pacific. Wish Ka-Bar would construct their knives like that again. But, in the meantime, this is a very fine knife.
Well, it is shiny and well made but don't depend on it for any real use, blade is too thin and too light, tang stamp is an ink print typical import. Not what I expect from Kabar.
