Folding Knife Jarosz Tanto KA-BAR® is a practical folding knife made of high quality steel with an unusual blade shape. Ideal knife for everybody, who is looking for a knife designed by experienced knife maker.
Long-time family experience with woodworking and carpentry and high demands on quality knives led to the production of the Tanto model, which is the result of cooperation between KA-BAR and experienced knife maker Jesse Jarosz.
The blade is made of high-quality AUS-8 stainless steel and has a Tanto shape - high point with a flat grind, leading to an extremely strong point that is perfect for stabbing into hard materials. The thick point of the tanto blade contains a lot of metal near the tip. The front edge of the tanto knife meets the back (unsharpened) edge at an angle, rather than a curve. As a result, the tanto blade does not have a belly, which is sacrificed in exchange for a stronger tip.
The handles are made of durable nylon. The knife has a practical pocket clip. The clip is moveable, designed for tip-up or tip-down right-hand carry. Reliable Liner -Lock against unwanted knife closing even during coarser handling.
