Cole National Display for Kabar and Sabre Knives

The KA-BAR brand originated as a trademark of the Tidioute Cutlery Company. Tidioute was later taken over & renamed the Union Cutlery Company which continued making the brand until Union eventually adopted it as the company name in 1952. Cutco Corporation later acquired the company in 1996.

Cole National Display for Kabar and Sabre Knives

Post by zzyzzogeton »

Well, they say you learn something every day. What I learned today was that Cole National also was responsible for Sabre Knives, which I have seen running around for years.

This display was found on fleabay.

Lots of info here on AAPK about the relationship between Kabar, Sabre, and Cole National. Here’s one interesting thread, viewtopic.php?f=79&t=49444&p=613185&hilit=Sabre#p612950

Do a search for “Sabre” if you’re interested in more. ::tu::

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.
