The Ka-Bar Combat Kukri Knife (brand part no. 1280) brings the traditional forward-curved kukri blade shape to Ka-Bar’s fixed-blade lineup, built for heavy chopping and utility work. The 8-inch carbon steel blade is forged in the classic kukri profile, which puts more weight forward for added chopping power. A Kraton G handle and powdered-metal butt cap and guard keep grip and control solid, and the knife ships with a heavy-duty, MOLLE-compatible polyester sheath.
