Never had one. How is their quality? Hold an edge pretty good? Sharpen fairly easily?
Found a man who has several for sale at what seems like a good to great deal and just kind of curious.
Thanks.

Had mine since I retired from the USMC back in 1991. I don't use it often, but have skinned 3 deer and 2 beaver with it and it is still sharp. Took the edge pretty quick. So, I think you will be pleased with it. I highly recommend them.

Which model are you looking at? The Kabar fighting knives have a storied history. I recently read where they're a descendant of the Bowie.

Just picked up an older Finn model 1226 for my grandson at a gun show. Now gotta find a sheath.
Life is too short to hunt with ugly guns.

I wouldn't buy a Chinese made one. China is plotting a cyber attack on us as I type.
