KA-BAR rigger's / marlin spike

[DanTX1953]

Just picked up this KA-BAR rigger's knife, it's in excellent condition.

* I understand that Camillus was the primary manufacturer of the rigger's / marlin spike knife for Kabar,

Nice one! Understand the ones in yellow and red are very sought after. I have a black one too. J.O'.

Yes, your knife is likely a Camillus product, but while the KA-BAR factory was still open KA-BAR made their own rigging knives.

Never seen the red, only heard of them. Had a yellow years ago, pretty bad shape, don't know what became of it. No pics for the red or yellow, Sorry. Here's a lime/yellow Wichard roper/rigger from France . The KA-BAR yellow was more lemon colored. Here's also an older KA-BAR rigger like yours in black.(Not a great color on a boat in dim light.) Enjoy your knife. Got the box too! J.O'.
