The KA-BAR Kukri Machete is a workhorse fixed blade designed for serious field use—chopping, clearing brush, camp tasks, and bushcraft work. Built on the proven kukri profile that has served outdoorsmen and military personnel for generations, this 11.5-inch carbon steel blade brings authentic design and reliable performance to hunting camps, survival kits, and overlanding rigs. The hollow-ground edge and moderate blade geometry make it efficient at repetitive cutting without requiring constant maintenance in the field.
What sets a kukri apart is its weight distribution and blade shape: the curved edge and forward-heavy geometry concentrate force at the cut, so you work smarter rather than just harder. The KA-BAR version pairs an SK5 carbon steel blade with a black Kraton handle that stays grippy even when wet or gloved, crucial when you're working in variable conditions. At 1.3 pounds and 17 inches overall, it's substantial enough to handle real work but light enough to carry without fatigue.
The sheath is a dual-material design—nylon and leather—that balances durability and field practicality. If you run a camp kitchen, maintain property, or need a dedicated chopping tool that doesn't belong in your hunting knife roll, the KA-BAR Kukri fills that gap better than a general-purpose blade. It's a tool that earns its place.

The kukri profile—a curved blade that widens toward the tip—concentrates cutting force and makes it excellent for chopping, slicing, and clearing work. The forward weight and geometry do the work for you compared to a straight blade of the same length.
This is a dedicated chopping tool rather than an all-purpose bushcraft knife. It excels at field tasks like splitting kindling, clearing brush, and heavy cutting. Many people pair it with a smaller fixed blade for detailed camp work.
Yes. The black Kraton handle maintains grip when wet and works well with gloved hands, making it practical for hunting and field use in variable weather. Carbon steel does require basic care to prevent rust in damp storage.
The blade ships with a dual-material sheath made of nylon and leather, designed for secure carry and field protection.
