A.G. Russell Knives

Ka-Bar's history goes back to the Tidioute Cutlery Company, which was founded in Pennsylvania in 1898. Out of the failure of that company, the Union Razor Company was formed in 1902. The name was changed again in 1909 to Union Cutlery Company then moved to Olean, New York in 1910. The Ka-Bar® trademark was introduced in the 1920's and around 1942 the company submitted a Ka-Bar branded knife to the U. S. Marine Corps.

For over 40 years, Bob Dozier has been a big name in the handmade knife industry. He has specialized in making working knives with the very best material, and a fit and finish that a working man can afford. Beginning in 2002, he teamed up with Ka-Bar to offer a series of folding hunters, of which we have sold thousands. Those folders have become some of the best values in a pocketknife available today.

With an overall profile no larger than a credit card, it measures about a 1/2" longer; this knife can be concealed just about anywhere. Lace it up in your boots, pin it under a tactical vest strap, or use the enclosed lanyard cord to hang it around your neck.

The TDI Law Enforcement Knives are designed for low profile or concealed carry and to be effective in close-quarters defense. The angles, textures and contours of the grips are just right for easy access and a firm hold.

Vietnam was the first war we lost. It was lost because of people in the movie industry and the American media who did everything in their power to bring America and the American troops down.

The current owners have updated the materials used and the manufacturing facilities, but the quality and reputation of Ka-Bar has continued on.

The end of WWII was marked by the lighting of beacons, ringing of church bells, street parties and bonfires.
