KA-BAR 1481 TDI Law Enforcement Serrated Edge Knife - Perfect for Self-Defense and Survival

Kirk Gillman: Sharp serrated blade, causes a wound channel that opens wide. Sounds harsh, but if you are having to use it, you need to be able to inflict enough damage to deter your assailant. Very comfortable as well.

Leland Linder: Great little back-up weapon. I wear it on my duty belt right next to my spare mags. Whoever tries to take my duty weapon is in for a surprise.

Alex: It is the perfect size for work for me. I work in animal control and needed a knife I could carry on my duty belt and access quick and this fit the bill. The only thing that I was disappointed with is the case It’s bent so much and I am constantly having to fix it wish they had something a little better for a battle battle

Hiding from the sun.: I opted for serrated to more quickly be able to cut through seat belts should it ever be needed for an accidental submersion. The grip has indentions for the index finger to help lock it into the grip and, as I understand it, it is considered to be one of the easiest to use defensive knives with even minimal to no knife combat training. It's designed as a backup for law enforcement should they be involved in an altercation for control of their primary weapon, but it works serviceably for concealed carry as well. The metal clip dose not allow a shirt to be tucked between it and the sheath, but it does hold very firmly to a belt and the knife stays in the sheath very well. As it is intended for emergency use only, a serrated blade seems optimal since it will cut most things more easily even if it were dull and with a more jagged cut. I cannot say much about the quality of the steel other than it seems adequate for the purpose and the price is phenomenal for the capability. It is definitely not a multipurpose knife and is not one I would consider for a utility knife. One would be hard-pressed to find a more optimal CCW for anything approaching its economy.

JAY: THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES! I own a lot of knives. This is the baddest piece of 2 inch steel ive ever bought. excellent kydex type material sheath (hard molded plastic) and metal clip. knife is sharp out of the box lifetime garauntee. Quick release snug fit easy to carry. Thick steel. KA-BAR is the choice of every branch of the US Armed Forces as well as many police departments across the nation as well as individuals who recognize buying quality over quantity is the way to go with select items in life. KA_BAR is one of those items!! RECOMMENDED FOR SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!! A big question I see is serrated or straight edge. The answer for me is obvious...it depends on what your knifes primary purpose is it made for. a blade such as this is designed for quick access to use in situations that are very close and personal. Blade is 2 inches long and is curved towards the user to maximize leverage and in other words cutting power. Its design is not to be thinking of any reason for clean even cuts.that a straight edge delivers. serrated cuts into and through items by rocking back and forth while the sharp teeth like uneven edge grabs, rips, tears, and slices through objects. straight edge is...
