Shortly after the start of W.W.II, Kabar began working with the Marine Corps Quartermaster to design a fighting knife for the United States Marine Corps. Soon kabar began production on the fighting / utility knife that would later make Kabar a widely recognized name.
When the war escalated the demand for the fighting / utility knives became so great that Kabar could not keep up. As a result, the government assigned several knife companies to create similar knives as supplemental pieces for those serving during the war. Still kabar's wartime production totaled more than 1 million knives. The kabar knives became so well recognized for their quality and so abundant that kabar became the name by which most referred to the fighting / utility knife.
Growing in popularity and earning well-deserved respect for it's service throughout the war, the USMC kabar fighting / utility knife was adopted by not only the Marines, but also the Army, Navy, Coast Guard and Underwater Demolition Teams (SEALS). The kabar knife was depended upon to perform daily tasks like pounding stakes and digging foxholes, as well as defending allied lives.
