KABAR Forged Wrench 3" Fixed Blade Knife, Drop Point, Plain Edge, 1119 425HC Stainless Steel Blade & Handle

The KA-BAR Forged Wrench 3" fixed blade knife pairs traditional forging craftsmanship with a straightforward design that works as hard as you do. Built on KA-BAR's reputation for tough, reliable tools, this compact fixed blade delivers a drop point blade in 425HC stainless steel—a steel choice that balances edge-holding ability with corrosion resistance, making it at home in the field, at camp, or in your vehicle. The plain edge and modest 3-inch blade length make this a practical everyday carry for hunters, campers, and anyone who needs a dependable cutting tool without unnecessary bulk.

The drop point blade geometry is a workhorse shape: it offers good control for detail work while the curved edge excels at slicing and general cutting tasks. Stainless steel construction means you're not fighting rust between outings, a real advantage if you're working in wet conditions or humid environments. KA-BAR has been forging knives since 1923, and that legacy shows in the attention to heat-treating and blade geometry that goes into every knife they make.

This is a no-nonsense tool for people who value function over flash. Whether you're processing game, preparing camp meals, or maintaining gear on the trail, a compact fixed blade that you can trust—and that won't let you down—is worth its weight. The 1119 model designation reflects KA-BAR's industrial approach to naming and building knives designed to earn their keep.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this knife good for hunting or field dressing?

Yes. The 3-inch drop point blade is well-suited to general camp and field tasks. Drop point geometry gives you good control and a strong edge for slicing. For detailed processing work, many hunters also keep a smaller blade handy, but this knife handles everyday cutting jobs reliably.

Will the stainless steel blade rust?

425HC stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and will hold up well to moisture and humid conditions. That said, stainless steel is not rust-proof—rinsing and drying the blade after use, especially in saltwater environments, will keep it in top condition.

What comes in the box?

This listing describes the knife only. Check the product page or contact us to confirm what sheath, case, or accessories are included with your purchase.

How does the plain edge compare to a serrated edge?

Plain edges are easier to sharpen and maintain, and they excel at slicing and precise cutting. Serrated edges can be more aggressive on fibrous materials and require less pressure in some tasks, but they're harder to touch up in the field. For a general-purpose knife, plain edge offers more versatility.
