First of all let me say thank you! Not for shouting me out I'm appreciative of that I really am but thank you for taking up the cause!!! That means more to me than anything in this world. I have said repeatedly this is not my cause but our cause!!

great knives.

Secondly thank you for the shout out! I am truly humbled beyond measure anytime I go to a KZfaq channel and hear my name. Not only my name but always really really beautiful things said it's humbling. And I ,my friend ,and truly honored

Incredible job my guy!! I'm at work but just wanted to let you know soon as I'm off I'll be on this. Watched the first cpl minutes to get it in my history and I'm legit blown away!!

Thirdly I've got to say this is the best damn knife review video I've ever seen! From cinematography to overall review just a really really well done video! I'm going to share it on my Facebook page. And with videos like this you'll be blowing up soon

#22aday We stand with you brother!

Just started watching. Damn man very well done! Ok back to the show!

Only a couple minutes in amd am already super impressed. Excellent job dude. Your passion for cinematography shows. I had no idea where their name came from. Very cool.

I love this knife. It feels so amazing in hand, kind of becoming an extension of my hand. This was an awesome video... so slick and polished. Well done good Sir.

I have the Ka-Bar model 1245 Tanto 8", and it's the knife that's meant to compete with the Leatherneck. Purely a combat knife.....I can see no other purpose for it. As of right now, if society melted down, this would be my go-to Urban Combat Knife. But I'm definitely going to get this Modified Tanto and replace it with that. Before I got my Fox Knives 598 fixed blade Karambit, the 1245 Tanto had the sharpest tip of any knife I've ever owned. It is absolutely needle sharp, and you can see the tip glitter. That Karambit however completely smashes it out of the water in the sharp department. But it's a far different knife design and not really comparable except for sharpness. If you get a chance to review any of the Fox Knives Karambits, I highly recommend you buy one and review it. The 598 is the only fixed blade model they make (to my knowledge), and I like it that way. Certainly nothing wrong with the folders though. Quality knives with good steel and terrifyingly sharp!

Great video man. Your videos have a little bit of everything, and a lot of passion for the community and the causes you support.

Came here on Scab’s recommendation. Subscribed for the high quality review & videography. Excellent.

great video, wonderful knives i only have a BK2 but the knife is great but a weak sheath, nice to see the better sheaths, take care, gave you a well deserved sub too, #22aday

And btw, I LOVE my Marine Raider Bowie! I like your taste in knives lol...

Very nice Joe! Been looking at this on for a bit. My Preacher should be here in a week or two, after that I think I will purchase this one. Great, great content. You are more informative than the History channel. Cheers

So very well done and so very well-spoken brother!!!!

Great looking knife! #22aday!

Great knife review!

What a GREAT VIDEO!!! I just pulled the trigger on this knife and now I'm binging on Ka-Bar's 1266 video's... Again Joe, great video!

Thanks for the lessons own three kabars lost too many friends from 22 a day

#22aday keep up the great work!

Sadly my only kabar so far is my kabar hobo knife (yes, that's a thing, lol), but you are really putting me in a kabar-buyin mood with this excellent breakdown/review. Love your style, production, and knowledge sharing brother. You deserve WAY more subs, and they'll be coming I bet. Anyways, keep rockin out these awesome vids, and wish me luck...goin kabar hunting! 🔪🔪🔪 ~dan

Love the story. Scab is great. #22aday

Just ordered it!! Can't wait! #22aday #BladeAddict

the best review I saw, I ordered one. In Europe the price is 115 euros minimum

Carl Ruger recommended your channel to me and now I am subscribed! :-) hello! Do I sound like old time radio!?

Would be interesting once you refine the edge to do some testing with sheathing and re-sheathing then putting it through the sharpness meter and see. And to my knowledge a larger Bowie is designed to be front heavy to be a effective chopper. If the POB is close to the handle it would be more of the fighting knife genre and not an effective chopper. Just my 2 cents. Loved this video brother!

I want the EK Commando with the Walnut handle but they're sold out. So right now for Christmas I had to settle with the D2 extreme straight edge, attachment system, and a patch.

I see a book of Natori Ryu behind you...

My marine son who spent 2 years in Afghanistan

Until David Bowie came along, everyone pronounced Jim Bowie's name as BOO'-wee, as it would be pronounced in Louisiana, where he spent most of his life.

Watching at work and my manager walks by and says you sound like Joe Rogan...

Hey, the Bowie is suppose to be heavy. It was meant to break a sabre. You hold it with the spine down, so you don't damage the edge when blocking a sabre slash. Also, when stabbing, the edge is up and cuts out and up as it is withdrawn. 🙂 native Texan and Army vet, I have read a little on the history and use of a Bowie knife. Though I'd share.

Boa tarde seus vídeos são muito bons mais colocar uma tradução aqui para nós do Brasil vocês aí nos EUA tem mais recursos eu sou apaixonado por facas

I just bought one of these, and *I love it!* Except... regarding the sheath, I want to ask Kabar, *"What happened?.."* It is *terrible!* - You ab-so-lute-ly can-not get a fighting grip while sheathed; and that stupid Kydex flappy part where the belt frog rivets on, has a sharp edge of its own - taking a rather nasty chunk from my middle finger knuckle. I get what they were doing trying to pirate off of dive knife design, but they really should have paid closer attention to the source material designs, including hilts. Dive knives often have narrow finger areas, with wider backstrap hilts, specifically so you can grab it with gloves on, and still use the button locks. That doesn't work well with the Kabar trademark mostly-round oval hilt. That flap is just... awful design. I reckon I'll carve my own sheath. But for this price... I shouldn't have to.

Can someone please educate me on what that black flag means and represents?

these friggin fiberglass sheaths always ruin edges. kbar screwed up following in cold steels footprints w this garbage. hate it.

Great review. Did you say this knife is full tang? I assumed it would be a rat tang like the other kabar USMC knives
