Meet the KA-BAR Modified Tanto, a blade that doesn’t just sit on your belt, it shows up ready for action. With its aggressive modified tanto tip, this knife powers through tough jobs like it was built for nothing else. Forged from 1095 Carbon Steel, it’s been expertly ground and heat treated for serious durability, yet still sharpens easily to that satisfying, hair-popping edge every knife lover appreciates.
In hand, it feels just right. The black Kraton G handle is shaped into KA-BAR’s classic oval grip, giving you a secure, comfortable hold whether you’re working through thick brush, handling camp tasks, or just putting it to the test. The finger guard and pommel keep everything locked in place, so the knife stays steady and controlled when it matters most.
When it’s time to carry, the rugged glass-filled nylon sheath steps up. Built to resist cracking, warping, and chipping, it’s designed for real-world use, not just display. With MOLLE-compatible lashing points and a reliable retention strap, you can carry it your way and trust it’ll stay put.
At 12.75" inches overall with an 8-inch non-serrated blade, this knife strikes the perfect balance between power and precision. Weighing in at 12 ounces, it’s substantial without being cumbersome, and its ambidextrous design makes it accessible for anyone. Whether you’re in the field, on the trail, or just want a knife that looks as tough as it performs, the KA-BAR Modified Tanto is built to handle it all.
