Perfect time to catch some damn good USA made Ka-bar knives. Only advice I'd add, stay away from the hard plastic molle sheath version knives (most are offered in hard plastic molle or leather sheath version) if looking to collect them, and not for some sort of normal/routine use...molle sheaths will scratch the hell out of the blades' finish.Kabar sale 50% off

The USN versions listed on Ka-bar now are either leather or hard plastic molle. Haven't heard anything mentioned about the old fiberglass sheaths in years. I think it was the Nord 4723 sheath, scabbard as it was referred to most often years ago, if memory serves. Wouldn't really know which direction to point you in other than maybe surplus stores or just happen to run across one one day. Might try ebay or something like that possibly.Do you know if they still make the USN NORD sheath?

They get an EXCELLENT rep as a hard use tool among bushcrafters & outdoorsman.Not a huge knife guy, my EDC is a Milwaukee folding utility knife and I like it just fine, but I got this Opinel as a gift for being in a wedding last weekend. Thought it was pretty cool.

This Ka-Bar 50% off sale originally ended last night, Wednesday at the stroke of midnight.
