I thought I would throw in a little history for you too. I never went to the factory when I was on recruiting duty but a lot of the recruiters got a lot of excellent deals right from the Ka-Bar factory and there was also a article about Ka-Bar sometime back. I think this is where it is on this forum.

Local Army surplus may carry them. I bought mine brand new from a local surplus to keep the money local.

You can buy them on ebay (maybe cheaper than anywhere else, and you can also try:
www.eknifeworks.com (http://www.eknifeworks.com)
they are around at gun shows also.and don't forget to pick up the latest brown handled new model from ontario knife.i had to get one of those when i first saw them. i guess you can call it a k-bar /bayo, since it go's on the end of a m-4 or 16a4.every Marine should own a k-bar.its been tradition since ww2,good luck in the search.

Just bought a knew Olean KA-Bar at a pawn shop for 45 bucks. Look out for the knock-offs that are sold just about anywhere. I saw some a while back that were selling for 35 bucks and looked great. They had USMC stamped on one side of the blade and nothing on the other. I figure they were from China.
