Does anyone still own some old ka bar usmc knives? Post pictures please. I'm trying to see how they have changed.
 
This one is 68 years old, carried in WW2 Pacific Theater, Guadalcanal. Belonged to my father in law, pictured in my avatar.
One of my most prized possessions:)

Absolute beauty. A dirty Kabar is a Kabar at it's finest.
 
I issued this knife to myself at my first duty station 30 years a go. I was an Armorer and had my choice. I looked for the oldest looking knife I could find so it's 30+ however many before me!

ka-bars are the go to blade for me after all these yrs.no knife inspires the same amount of confidence in myself. i can afford any custom or whatever but the ka-bar is one i would choose to wade thru hell with.
