It took more abuse, and lasted way longer than I thought it would. I knew it would snap, but I thought it would have broken where the blade meets that 90 degree tang. For it to take that degree of punishment and stress, just proves what a great, quality knife the Ka-Bar actually is. Great video. 👍

That blade held out that 99% of knives wouldn't even come close to. 1095 can be impressive if properly heat treated and folks in KA BAR realized how to do it. Long long time ago. Survival, bushcrafting, combat-you name it. Great, universal blade.

Shows how much abuse this knife can handle. The people saying it is bad for Kabar knives to snap like this here is a short history lesson. The USMC Ka-Bar was designed and used as a Fighty/Utility knife. It originally was a fighting knife. The clip point being slightly sharpened makes the knife pierce better the fuller/blood groove gives it better stiffness and to lighten the blade. The hand guard has a curve towards the handle so it rests against the users hand better. The handle weather stacked leather or plastic keeps it firm in the users hand and is made to accommodate most hand sizes even large one. Now keeping all that in mind the knife was really made to do one thing and that is to kill another human being. Primarily by stabbing them or slicing them. The blade is strong enough to withstand hitting bone without breaking or to cut through it (ie beheading). The utility portion is really just a opportunistic thing. You see an opportunity to where it can be applied then it can usually do it once or twice depending on the task. It is no real surprise it failed under the weight of a sledgehammer and cutting steel and so forth. It was never designed to do those task's. You wouldn't use a skinning knife to chop your wood then why would you expect a knife designed to kill people to do it. It is performing outside of the realm which it was designed for. If I snap the tip of a Ka-bar trying to pry the head off an engine then who is at fault. Me of course because I am not using the proper tool for the job. Now if I was trying to pry the head off of another person it will perform and do just that. Can it be used as a utility knife in a situation of survival you bet your ass it can but do not expect it to move large boulders and so forth. The knife is simply a combat/fighting knife and that is all. All the features of it I previously said makes it perfect for stabbing people or slicing them. This knife can and will kill people, open ammo boxes and ration tins of the WWI and WWII era, hammer a stake for a tent, cut foliage etc etc. The main point of all this being that it is primarily by design a combat knife the same as a Bowie Knife NOT a survival knife so don't expect it to be one and unless people are made of metal then don't try to cut metal. Props to the guy who made the video to see how far it can be stressed before breaking.

+evilcowboy yep, other than the blade breaking, which was probably from weakening the spine with that hammer, i would say there was not a single thing he did to it that could not have been quickly fixed with a bit of work with a file or sharpening stones, i would say it isn't a good knife to baton with but in normal everyday use as a hunting/utility knife i would say it will last a long time.

Iamthedudeman00 I'm not understanding how the handle material dictates the blades strength. I think you mean to say that an original kabar would have broken sooner, due to steel with less strength used back when. you can get a modern stacked leather handle kabar made with the same exact steel used in the ka1212 and ka1214. I understand your confusion. but you can't claim that kabars with leather handles are of less quality than kabars with the rubber grips, because it's simply not true
@desmondoliver4354
@desmondoliver4354 10 жыл бұрын
Vininull, I think the reason why it broke was because of how 1095 steel can be a very brittle metal when it is heat treated to a high Rockwell, especially around the 55-60 area. Ka-bars don't have a deferential temper to them, just like you saw. The steel pattern from that cross section of where it broke, the grains in the steel were very homogeneous. The ka-bar has a very high rockwell throughout all of the metal, so when you hit steel that has a very high rockwell with another very hard object, it will fracture and chip rather than bend or deform. Hope this helps :)

I love the Kabar haterz, "get a true full tang", they say, "the Kabar is garbage" lol. What they fail to understand is, this is a soldiers knife, and was designed as such just before WWII. No soldier wants to tromp around with a huge heavy hunk of steel on their side. First, it's a pain in the ass to carry along with all the other gear they gotta hump. Second, a 7 inch true full tang blade is too damn slow n heavy for hand to hand CQB. The Kabar design however, gives one all the reach and cutting power of a big blade, yet is lightning quick. It's probably, still to this day, the fastest in hand big blade ever made. It also gives the user plenty of handle, so you can choke back on it and gain even more slashing/chopping power. The ergonomics are excellent and the balance/feel of the blade in hand are energetic & lively. Would I like a Kabar USMC blade with a true full tang, milled out for weight reduction, with an integral guard? Sure! But the knife would lose certain characteristics. The weight, feel, and balance would all be changed. It wouldn't be the same...These knives were made to be mass produced in war time, and fancy tang milling wasn't part of the program, or even considered on blades back then. Yet the men who designed this knife for fighting and utility created a timeless masterpiece. This blade has a soul. Few blades have that quality. Sure, it can be broken, but it takes a helluva lot to do it. I'll take that trade off for speed and usability.

Kabars are not garbage but this test would of been better suited for the BK2. This USMC model is not a good CQC knife for self defense. Would it work? yes. Would it be ideal? hell no. Speed is the name of the game if your being rushed by an attacker. A fast deploying razor sharp folder can go from the pocket to the throat in one linear motion. This gigantic USMC knife may look intimidating hanging from the belt of a biker but it's not really practical. IMO
@tokr72
@tokr72 9 жыл бұрын
Myk Ford In a civilian everyday setting for self defense purposes, I'm with you. On the battlefield, whether urban or otherwise, I disagree. The Kabar was designed for soldiers when the human wave tactic was heavily utilized in warfare, especially by Imperial Japan. Hand to hand combat was a given, it was going to happen, no way around it. That kind of deal is not a job for a folder. Also, Kabar makes some very good, quick access, polymer sheaths for this blade. Today soldiers carry them attached to their LBE, often in a cross draw position so the blade can be unsheathed and slash in one fluid motion, much like Samurai deployed the Katana. I'm not saying this is the best fighting knife ever. That is a completely subjective taste for each individual. There are so many good knives today, but that wasn't the case back in the day, the options were slim... But I think I can say this with strong confidence: that the Kabar type knife has seen more actual combat and soldier use than any other knife made.

But I do train Escrima/Kali/FMA, and I practice with live blades. I own a fair number of knives and other edged weapons, and I've handled a few blades in my time. There are no finer "big" blades for martial application than the standard Kabar and the Kabar 1245 Tanto, imho. The Gerber Mark II is another one I really like, very fast and nimble. Daggers are another story though, not really a field knife. Specifically made for killing.

Seen more USMC Kabar Fighting/Utility knifes broken than any knife in my life. Once seen three Kabars broken in less than ten minutes once, by throwing them at a tree. The steel in them looked much different than the steel on the knife here. All the older knives were rat-tail tang broken at guard juncture, steel was very grainy. Never bought another Kabar after that though I might one of the newer ones such as shown here in this demo. I am impressed in the upgrade quality in comparison to the old war ones.

This video only serves to demonstrate the idiotic expectations of certain preppers and survivalists. Any of them who would expect their knives to survive this kind of abuse would surly not survive because they would break the very tools needed to keep them alive. There is an old saying that "there is a tool for every job." A knife, no knife, is designed to take this kind of punishment, and still be able to hold an edge, cut, slice, and be easy to sharpen, and hold an edge. To make a knife that tough , it would have to be made out of steel far too hard to have those qualities. Where I come from, we use an axe for chopping, cutters to cut cable, a hack saw to cut tubing. It would be a very desperate situation to use a knife for those tasks. Battoning a knife (which I never even heard of prior to watching youtube) would be considered crazy and careless. If attempted, it would be gently done with a limb or other piece of wood, because any moron knows your'e likely to break your knife! Waling on the back of a knife with a hardened steel sledge hammer is just criminal! It only sets the metal up for failure. The KaBar is an excellent tool for which it was designed, and I would have total confidence carrying it in the bush for any situation. Oh, and I wouldn't be without my axe either!

The Gerber would likely snap off if he had of pried with it after the beating. And the Gerber is a bitch to sharpen, and doesn't hold an edge as well. I hold fast to the statement that no knife is meant to stand up to this kind of abuse. It would be rather silly to be "disappointed" by any of this.

The loads on the knife from the hammer are far worse than whats on the cutting edge when your smashing the knife. Everything about the knife was excellent until you started smashing the spine of the knife with the hammer. I like your hard use videos. Keep them coming.

The steel in a knife has to have balance between hardness and toughness. A sledgehammer is going to be pretty tough by design, as it's designed to take blows. So, of course it will deform the steel in the knife, which is designed to have a balance between toughness to take blows to an object, and hardness to hold an edge. A metal that is tough isn't necessarily hard, and a metal that's hard (such as Tungsten) isn't necessarily tough. This is how and why forging works. Were you to hit Tungsten with that hammer, you would shatter it but it wouldn't likely deform or scratch right away. I think many people are under the impression that steel has the properties they see in movies, which is pretty much Hollywood showing a single piece of steel having the good properties of virtually every alloy in existence.

Я тоже тестировал ка-бар, забивал в дерево и висел на нем, проверял острие на ковырянии сырой березы. Вот только не додумался делать батонинг лупя по обуху металлическим молотом, делал это вполне очевидным способом - ударял по ножу деревяхой. От удара металлическим молотком по ножу-немудрено , что сломается. Кстати , забивал в дерево и висел на нем . Ножом пользуются до сих пор KA-BAR 1211. Проверка прочности и удобства.

I have to say, on this test - the kabar bit into the wood more than the majority resulting in achieving greater force on the blade when pulling, also, your pulling force was almost 90 degrees to the blade - which is more than ive seen you be able to do on other knives. It looked like you bent the blade about 45 degrees on the first pull lol. The tests arent uniform but they have helped me decide on folding knifes, thanks and keep up the good work. Great videos!!

Сделайте круглый обух этому ножу и обработку и замените сталь, закалку стали и возможно форму и рукоятку и будет отличный нож). Для таких испытаний подойдут стали для ударных инструментов или криогенные стали) Они все это переживут). По поводу испытаний, можно ли добавить удары молотком при -12С и -20С ниже не надо). Это хорошие температурные точки для испытания ножа (в них сталь хрупкая), ну и американсканцы наверняка мечтают окропить снег красненьким). Также интересена морская вода, морской туман и его влияние на нож - раскарбидизация, ржавение и рассыпание от TiO и коррозии на границе зерен. Тут хороша шутка про сапоги и Индийский океан, но я ее опущу)

No, YOU were not talking about size, weight, dimensions and steels. You just wrote "any other knife" and that is pretty wrong. Well, an INFI-Steel Busse in the same size, weight and dimensions will outperform the Kabar, many other Knifes in many different steels will do that as well, thats not a secret. The Kabar is still much bang for the buck and there is nothing wrong with that, just dont overhype the Kabar because its just a Kabar, i love mine, but i would not overstress it like shown in the video.

It’s a COMBAT/utility knife if the name unscathed fighting knife didn’t give it away it’s not made to be used as a hatchet or whatever your using it for. It’s primarily used for stabbing/slashing people in combat but can also be a tool for utility purposes. The thin blade and small rat tail tang make it light and easy to carry while loaded down with gear and fast/maneuverable in combat. There are knives that are made for this kinda stuff there excessively heavy and have poor balance and don’t make great fighting knives. A filet knife is a poor substitute for a hatchet too but it works great on fish where a hatchet doesn’t different tools have different uses you seem to need an ax or pry bar possibly a drill not a fighting knife.

Hm, not quite the result I was hoping to see. Of course we all get this is abuse beyond reasonable use, but nonetheless, some knives (some of them lower priced) do get through those tests much more graciously than this knife did. I'm still getting one, I love the look and the dual role it fills, and I love those flat pommels I find them extremely handy... but I don't think a Ka-bar is the toughest knife you will ever own. Ah well, thanks for sharing the results of your experiments with us, I really enjoy your videos.

That's because many of the cheaper ones use a softer steel that deforms instead of breaking. Great for a throwing knife you're using as a toy. Not so good for a knife you want to actually cut things with without having to sharpen it every 10 minutes.

Just a word of caution: In a situation such as this, if the blade part were to snap off and fly through the air, it could seriously mess someone up. It is a big, sharp piece of metal. It could easily filet someone's face real bad.

If you want it to survive batonning don't use a metal hammer use a wood log and baton going down the grain not across then the blade won't snap or be dented on the spine, while batonning hold onto the handle kind of lightly so it doesn't want to bend the tang

I'm impressed, that knife really was badly abused by you ,I don't think anybody in their right mind would treat their survival tool in this fashion , the edge stayed true after all that and the tip also held up remarkably well ,don't forget if a soldier breaks or loses his knife it is replaced free of charge of course the government likes to keep costs low ,so they issue tough equipment to start with, would I buy one , probably yes

Steel to steel impact definitely would brake the knife. Look at the hammer size and the blade width. The heat generated by hammering the knife would really break it. With that abusive test the Kabar really stands quality, strength and history.

Всё-равно отличнейший нож. С долом и не таким уж толстым клинком, результат был ожидаем, особенно после тех вмятин, что появились на обухе. И его геометрия создавалась для несколько иных целей). Может быть действительно там зонная закалка, ведь рк всё держала на ура. Кончик тоже супер. Жаль что не удалось его проверить на "ступеньке".

Ну самый близкий по параметрам нож который прошёл хард юз - это ультима. У него чуть-чуть обух потолще, и клинок не такой длинный, следовательно не такой мощный рычаг создавался. Даже не знаю чего кабару не хватило. Может быть сочетание всех этих параметров и было гранью.
