Full description
The KA-BAR EK Commando Knife EK51 is the modern interpretation of the classic EK Commando knife. This version has a drop point blade shape where the back of the knife gradually slopes down to the tip. This shape makes for a strong blade with a robust tip that is suitable for heavier cutting and piercing work. The origins of the design, and the handle design in particular, dates back to World War II. In 1941 the original EK Commando Knife was designed by John Ek. Ever since this knife, and the versions that followed it, were used in almost all wars the United States was involved in. This might give you an idea of how much history comes with this design.
