Has your endless search for the right chef's knife become dull?

The **KA-BAR 8040** is a remarkable chef's knife. What makes this knife so special is the handle. It is very similar to that of the classic KA-BAR USMC knives, except the handle of the KA-BAR chef's knife is made of black micarta, as opposed to the stacked leather rings of the USMC. Micarta is more resistant to moisture and acids, so it stays in tip-top shape in the kitchen. The blades are handmade in Solingen, Germany, after which the knives are assembled in the Czech Republic.

The package includes a handy magnetic storage tray. The knife is perfect for the ‘pinch grip’ way of holding, thanks to the shape of the bolster. Another thing you might notice is that the knife's point of balance is right in front of the handle. This makes the knife surprisingly agile, in spite of its size.



The blade of this knife is enhanced with a 'satin finish'. This is a chic and tasteful finish that is very popular.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
