The Ka-Bar Les George Cool Name is a fixed blade knife built for hunters, bushcrafters, and field workers who need a dependable steel blade that handles real cutting work. At 4.25 inches, the drop point blade strikes a practical balance between reach and control—long enough to process game or field tasks, short enough to carry and maneuver in tight spaces. The plain edge holds its sharpness through repeated use, and the 1095 Cro-Van steel is forgiving to maintain in the field without sacrificing edge retention.

This is a no-frills workhorse. The smoke polycarbonate handle is built to last, comfortable in extended use, and stands up to wet conditions and rough handling. At 9 inches overall length, it fits naturally in hand whether you're detail work or taking on heavier cutting. Ka-Bar's included sheath means you're ready to go straight out of the box—no hunting for a carry solution or dropping extra cash on leather.

If you spend time in the field and want a blade that performs without demanding a lot of maintenance or fanfare, the Cool Name delivers. It's the kind of knife that becomes an extension of your hand and earns its place in your pack or belt.
