Hi folks,
I am not what you would call an avid collector of blades but I have a small collection of military type knives and one I have always liked is the USMC KA-BAR. I love the feel of the compressed leather handle and the weight feels good in the hand, albeit balance is not perfect. Designed as a utility knife (and also a killing weapon), I appreciate it's a tad too large for "normal" bushcraft type work but I wondered if anyone here had used one on a regular basis and if so I would love to hear your feedback and thoughts on its practicality or otherwise.
I have never used mine but have often wondered what it would handle like when out on a wild camp. All comments appreciated.
