The Ka-Bar 1250 Short USMC is a no-nonsense fixed blade knife built on decades of military tradition. This 5.25-inch clip point blade delivers the iconic Ka-Bar profile in a more compact package—ideal for hunters, tactical users, and anyone who needs a reliable everyday carry knife that doesn't demand belt real estate. The blade is forged from 1095 Cro-Van steel, a proven alloy that holds an edge well and sharpens easily in the field, while the brown leather handle provides a secure, time-tested grip that ages gracefully with use.
Ka-Bar's Short USMC isn't trying to reinvent the wheel; it's a straightforward tool that's earned its place in packs and on belts since the Marine Corps adopted the original in 1942. The clip point geometry works equally well for camp tasks, hunting prep, or general utility, and the included sheath keeps the blade secure and accessible. This is the kind of knife that just works—no fancy coatings, no gimmicks, just steel and leather that get tougher with age.
Whether you're outfitting your hunting kit, rounding out a survival setup, or looking for a fixed blade that won't let you down, the Ka-Bar 1250 Short USMC delivers proven performance at a fair price point. It's the quiet choice for users who know what they need and don't chase trends.
