you think it's the real deal? Not a cheap you know what copy?
Need me a good knife around the farm, how about this Ka-Bar?
Are these legit Ka-Bars on Amazon?
I don't need a Rambo knife, just something heavy duty and durable.
But this price worries me????
Seems pretty cheap to me to be a decent HD knife in my thinking.
Anyone ever bought one of these?
Can you recommend something similar and better?
Even an old used classic similar knife will do me fine.
I just don't want a piece of junk.
Thanks!
ETA: I mentioned Ka-Bar because it was the only name I knew.
I had an excellent general use knife for years, was issued to my dad in the navy, it was a small fixed blade, leather handle, with a Camillus blade with blood grove. I always thought it was a small Ka-Bar but it looked different than the big knife carried by Marines. I think it was issued for general duties on board or something. A real shame I lost it. Maybe I can find one on eBay and get a picture to help me hunt one down?
I'll be back!
ETA AGAIN: I did not see any knives the same, some similar, but not same. Mine did not have any military markings, only "Camillus" on the blade.
It looked similar to this knife on eBay but where you see the markings below mine only had "Camillus."
My knife had a heavy blade with blood groove also. I'm sure it came from the navy, dad was not the type to spend money on a knife.

Ordered this too:
Ontario Spec Plus SP-6 Fighting Knife, 8682
The Spec Plus knives were once discontinued by Ontario Knife Company, but in recent years was brought back by popular demand. The SP-6 Fighting Knife features a 7.9" black powder coated, 1075 Carbon Steel Blade. The Ontario SP-6 Fighting Knife has a black kraton handle with grooves. The SP-6...ontario-knife-store.com
I find this one to be well balanced for me and comfortable in my hand. Says USA right on it.
Sharpens well and holds an edge as good as anything in this price range.
If i didn't already have what I like, I would be seriously considering this one.

I found the knife I had!
Took a lot of searching.
It is a military knife . . . it's on this farm somewhere in the woods.
It never had a correct scabbard, I made a makeshift one from a different knife, that's why it fell out and got lost.
