Kabar usmc, Kabar fighter, or cold steel leatherneck d2?

[Joshua Wong]

Of the three, I like the fighter the best. Now thst it is offered in a straight edge, I think it improves on the classic kabar in a lot of ways.



Any of the three you listed should be fine if you use them within their parameters.

Why do you like the fighter better than the leatherneck?

The BK-7, while being a VERY robust knife, handles very much like the Navy Mark II/Marine F/U knife. In other words, it's a very fast handling knife.

It is an outstanding full (*exposed) tang option to the knives you are considering. I definitely wouldn't rule it out without giving it some serious consideration.


Your mileage may vary. Happy hunting.

Alright I have narrowed it down to the bk7 or the cold steel leatherneck

Why do you like the fighter better than the leatherneck?

Just personal preference. I like a longer blade of the fighter. I like the wide profile. I like handle material better. The LN is fine. It's a great knife at the pricepoint, for sure.

The fighter just feels a bit more nimble in my hand.
