On December 9, 1942, during the Second World War, KA-BAR presented a knife to the United States Marine Corps in the hope of it becoming the standard weapon. In collaboration with the Marine Supply Department, the project was revised and the production of an improved combat and utility knife began.

During the war, USMC KA-BAR knives became so renowned for their quality and abundance that "KABAR" became the common name. It was adopted by the Marines, Army, Navy, Coast Guard, and Underwater Demolition Teams. Years later, many KA-BAR knives were reactivated in Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

In 2019, KA-Bar joined forces with Spartan Blades to establish Pineland Cutlery. CEO John Stitt aimed to create a "KA-BAR" with enhanced strength, robustness, and corrosion resistance. During development, metallurgist Larrin Thomas identified CPM MagnaCut® steel with the desired qualities.

CPM MagnaCut® is a sintered high-carbon steel produced by Crucible Industries and specially designed for blades. Spartan Blades developed the Spartan-KA-BAR using CNC machining, cryogenic treatment, and PVD coatings.
