usmce4 Posted February 24, 2019 Share #1 Posted February 24, 2019 I bought this several weeks ago at a gun show along with a Camillus Care Tag. The price was silly cheap so considering the price and the condition I bought them assuming they were not genuine. However, on close inspection and comparison to several others, I find the Camillus is real. That makes me wonder about this, but I can only find two other people who have one of these and one has red lettering like a Camillus, and the other has the same black lettering as this but has other differences. I'm putting this on here hoping somebody, ANYBODY, will have a picture of a KA-BAR Care Tag they'll be willing to post or PM - even if it's different than mine. Even if it proves this one is not real I'm happy with it at the price I paid, but if it IS real I'd rather preserve it properly instead of displaying it on a knife. Thanks in advance for any assistance, Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hudson Posted February 24, 2019 Share #2 Posted February 24, 2019 In searching the forum I can find many photos of the Camillus tags, but so far nothing on the Union Ka Bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costa Posted February 24, 2019 Share #3 Posted February 24, 2019 never seen a Ka-Bar tag or 1 on a knife. Camillus, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usmce4 Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share #9 Posted February 24, 2019 I only have one. I am not 100% sure it is genuine though. Don: Yours is the one I was referring to when I said I found another with black ink like mine but with slight differences. Bob: I've searched not only the forum, but the entire web for hours on end. Aside from Don's and the one with the red lettering the only other one I found is this, which is an obvious fake unless the reverse skipped the printing process and went thru a time warp to become brand new again.

Frank Trzaska Posted February 24, 2019 Share #10 Posted February 24, 2019 Art, Your tag is a reproduction. As you noted there are differences in the one posted by mikedon and in the one I have. All the best Frank Trzaska Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
