Ka-Bar 5602 Gamestalker (Johnson Adventure Blades)

Post by jerryd6818 »

Came in today's mail. I just couldn't resist the combination of the resemblance of the blade to a Nessmuk and the orange handles. Feels good in the hand.

That's a cool looking knife Jerry, kind of a blend between the modern high tech blades and the classic old designs of days gone by.

Thanks Phil. The longer I have it, the more I like it. No buyers remorse here.

Jerry what is the weight like on the knife? I like that color hard to lose. Looks like a keeper.

Knife weights 4.1 oz. Blade is 5/32" thick at the spine so it's fairly robust. I like the concave grind on the blade.
