Kabar Becker BK18BK Harpoon Black 1095 Tactical Fixed Blade Knife

Another great collaboration between Ethan Becker and KaBar knives, the BK18 builds off of the popular and ergonomic BK16 handle platform. It offers a robust, tactical Harpoon style blade that lends itself to more tactical use while still being functional for utility tasks. This Blackout version features both the 1095 Cro-Van blade and Ultramid polymer handles in Black with a matching MOLLE compatible Celcon polymer sheath and nylon drop loop for carry.

Brand new, direct from Kabar Knives.

Blade: Made from time tested 1095 Cro Van carbon steel the harpoon style blade that is ready for some serious use. A high saber grind offers a balance of good durability performance with good belly for slicing. Tapering the blade to a fine point for piercing, the harpoon swedge enhances the tip strength for tactical use. A short section of jimping behind the swedge adds some traction while the durable black powder coat finish delivers a discreet, non-reflective and corrosion resistant finish.

Handle: Contoured polymer handles are attached to the full tang via stainless steel hardware and offer a lightweight, durable, and weather resistant handle that is both comfortable and secure in multiple grip positions. An exposed portion of the tang can be used for improvised striking or hammering while a milled hole allows for lanyard attachment.

Sheath: Carries via a rugged, MOLLE compatible, molded polymer sheath with nylon drop loop.

1095 Cro Van: Based on 1095 carbon steel with the addition of small amounts of Vanadium, Molybdenium, Nickel and Chrome for improved wear resistance and toughness. Easy to sharpen, takes a fine edge, non-stainless and requires care to prevent corrosion.
