KA-BAR Heavy Duty Fixed Blade Warthog KA1278

The KA‑BAR Heavy‑Duty Warthog is engineered for serious outdoor work — a tool that won’t quit when the tasks get tough. The massive 6.75-inch blade, crafted from SK5 high-carbon steel and finished in a non-reflective black coating, delivers unmatched durability for batoning, chopping, and heavy-duty survival use.

With an overall length of 12.25 inches and a blade thickness of 0.25 inches, this knife brings true heft where it counts. The broad Warthog design features a deep recurve and wide belly, giving serious slicing and chopping capability. It locks securely into your hand with a Kraton-G handle molded for grip, complete with finger grooves, a front and rear guard, and a lanyard hole through the flared pommel for secure carry in the field.

Full-tang construction ensures strength and balance, ideal for cutting wood, clearing brush, or processing heavy game outdoors. A leather and Cordura sheath keeps this heavy tool secured and ready for duty. Whether retracing old trails, working around camp, or navigating rugged terrain, this fixed blade is built with purpose and endurance.
