KA-BAR
The Ka-Bar USMC Short Serrated Knife 1252 is the compact, combat-proven fixed blade trusted by Marines and backcountry users who need a do-it-all edge in a carry-friendly size. Built on decades of military heritage, this 5.25-inch knife combines a clip point blade with partial serration, giving you clean cuts and aggressive grip when you need it. The 1095 Cro-Van steel blade holds an edge well and is straightforward to maintain in the field or at the range.
Brown leather handle scales provide a timeless grip and age gracefully with use—no plastic pretense here. Whether you're processing game, setting camp, or keeping one close for general utility, the USMC 1252 delivers the no-nonsense reliability that made Ka-Bar a standard issue for generations. This is a knife that works harder the more you use it, and the included sheath means you're ready to deploy right out of the box.
This short-blade format strikes the balance many hunters, campers, and outdoor workers prefer: large enough to handle real tasks, compact enough to carry without bulk. The partial serration gives you options—smooth edge for detail work, teeth for tougher materials. A genuinely versatile fixed blade that earns its spot in your pack or on your belt.
| Blade Length | 5.25 inches |
| Blade Shape | Clip Point |
| Blade Edge | Partial Serration |
| Blade Material | 1095 Cro-Van Steel |
| Handle Material | Brown Leather |
| Included Sheath | Yes |
The Ka-Bar USMC 1252 features a partial serration, meaning roughly the back half of the blade edge has teeth while the front portion remains smooth. This gives you the best of both: the smooth edge excels at detail cuts and slicing, while the serrated section grips tougher materials like rope, cordage, and fibrous plants with more aggressive bite. You can choose which section to use depending on the task.
Yes. The 5.25-inch blade and clip point design make it well-suited for field dressing, processing game, and general camp duties. The partial serration gives you cutting options, and the compact size means it won't weigh you down or snag on brush. Many hunters prefer this shorter, lighter blade for backcountry work.
The Ka-Bar USMC 1252 comes with a protective sheath for carrying and storage. You're ready to carry or deploy right out of the box.
The 1095 Cro-Van steel is straightforward to care for. Keep the blade dry, wipe it clean after use, and sharpen it with standard methods when needed. It's not stainless, so occasional oiling prevents rust—nothing fussy, just honest maintenance for a working blade.
