KaBar Dogs Head

I have been intrigued by the KaBar Dogs Head, and can find out little about them. I have heard that KaBar Knives are extremely hard to date.

 

The old ones are very expensive $200-500 and up. Wonder why they are so expensive? Are they rare? Not many around? I seem to see them at shows wherever I go. I sure would like one.

 

The Dogs Head have been re-introduced - I think in the '70's-and the new ones are very nice. I visited the Cutco/Kabar Cutlery in Olean, NY recently and saw a few.

 

What do you know about the Dogs Head? Any pictures to post here?

 

Here is my only one dated I think 70's - maybe 1984 - I think it was a Club Knife.

    Oh yeah, dogs heads are hot! A few days ago a single blade, 4 5/8 in., stag lock-back hammered down for $130! I would have posted a picture but it was a poor, dim photo. Didn't matter though. The seller has a good rep so the description was good enough for the bidders. I gave up at $47 - dream on Michael.........

    Michael, you got that right. I have 4 of them, and I would like to collect them but they just go too high for me.
