KA-BAR Big Brother 2217 partially serrated, fixed knife, leather sheath

The KA-BAR 2217 Big Brother is literally the big brother of the famous KA-BAR USMC. The knife is big and feels very strong. The handle is enhanced with a knife guard to make sure you will never end up on the razor-sharp edge during heavy-duty use. The blade is made from 1095-carbon steel. This type of steel is not stainless. Fortunately the blade is enhanced with a black coating to make sure maintenance is a lot easier. The handle is made from stacked leather rings. Comfortable for your hands, even when it is freezing out. The main difference with the USMC 1217, except from its size, is that the spine of the blade is enhanced with serrations.
