First founded by two brothers, KA-BAR was originally known as the Tidioute Cutlery Co. in Tidioute, PA. — in 1902 the company moved to Olean, NY where it still remains today. A fun note on how they got their name…it dates back to the early 1900's from a fur trapper testimonial. He wrote that while trapping, his gun jammed leaving him with only his knife to kill a wounded bear that was attacking him. He thanked the knife makers in a letter thanking them for making a quality knife that helped him to kill a bear, but all that was legible was "K a bar". Honored by the testimonial, the company adopted the phrase KA-BAR as their trademark.
