Ka-Bar 1252 Short USMC serrated

Model "Short USMC" is Ka-Bars classic form with a 5-1/4" partly serrated Clip-Point blade made of black-coated 1095 steel (Blade width of approx. 23.0 mm), including double-sided hand protection is equipped with a leather handle and will be delivered with a brown leather sheath including fastener loop.- This model is a massive, classic working knife for nearly all tasks with an outstanding cost/performance ratio....... there is no difference in the price between the models, neither at the original 7"-Blades nor at the shortened 5-1/4"-Blades, but the classical models with Kraton handle are more favourable than the ones with leather handle, during the versions with leather handle are more favourable than the models with Nylon handle! -

Kindly note the following: At the 'small' Ka-Bars not only the blades are shorter, but the whole knife has been virtually “shrunked in size”, therefore, the knife will not be suitable for big hands.
