KA-BAR Short vs Boker Arbolito — Best Bushcraft & EDC Knife?

KA-BAR Short 1256 vs Boker Arbolito Venador — two fixed blade knives, one question: which is the better bushcraft and EDC knife? In this side-by-side unboxing I put the American-made KA-BAR Short up against the Argentine-made Boker Arbolito Venador and break down steel, handle, edge and build quality — and how each one actually performs for everyday carry, bushcraft, camping and the field. One is a carbon steel utility legend born from the USMC fighting knife. The other is a stainless steel hunter handmade in Argentina. Two very different blades — so which one earns a spot on your belt? 🔪 KA-BAR Short 1256 • Made in USA (leather sheath made in Mexico) • 1095 Cro-Van high carbon steel • 5.25" clip point blade, 9.25" overall • Black epoxy, non-reflective coating • Kraton G handle — grippy when wet or cold • Based on the legendary WWII USMC fighting knife • Rockwell hardness 56–58 🔪 Boker Arbolito Venador (02BA313G) • Handmade in Argentina (Böker, since 1869) • Böhler N695 stainless steel • 5.5" drop point blade, 10.24" overall, full tapered tang • Hollow ground with a satin finish • Guayacan ebony wood handle with mosaic pins • Genuine Argentinean cowhide leather sheath • Built for big game hunting Carbon steel vs stainless steel.
