Ka-bar coke bottle

The KA-BAR brand originated as a trademark of the Tidioute Cutlery Company. Tidioute was later taken over & renamed the Union Cutlery Company which continued making the brand until Union eventually adopted it as the company name in 1952. Cutco Corporation later acquired the company in 1996.

Ka-bar coke bottle

Post by searcher1970 »

I recently picked up a Ka-bar coke bottle. Huge knife, 9 inches open! No idea of the age but I'm really liking it.
