Undead Beware: Ka Bar Releases Zombie Killer Knife Series

Ka Bar has launched a new line of knives the geared directly towards those of us preparing from the zombocolypse. The Zombie Killer or the more PC "ZK" knife series hit stores recently, the line featuring distinctive toxic green handles, big blades and not-so-friendly names. Yep, there's the big Four Horsemen of the apocalypse - the "Death" Dagger, "Pestilence" Chopper, "Famine" Tanto and "War" Sword, as well as a folder and neck knife.

Of course, Ka Bar doesn't just come out and say "we made these knives for killing zombies"; their marketing copy is a little bit less obvious:

In an ever-changing world, the need for preparedness has never been greater. Without notice the game can change and the rules no longer apply. Questioning your gear at a crucial moment is not an option. Whether setting up camp or securing your perimeter, ZK knives are designed to perform under the most rigorous, unexpected and apocalyptic situations. Are you prepared?

Missed opportunity there. It's much better if you insert some undead into it:

In an ever-changing world, the need for ZOMBIE preparedness has never been greater. Without notice zombies can arise and the rules no longer apply. Questioning your ZOMBIE gear at a crucial moment is not an option. Whether setting up zombie camp or securing your zombie perimeter, ZK knives are designed to perform under the most rigorous, unexpected and apocalyptic situations (like zombies). Are you prepared for zombies?

Well, are you?

If toxic neon green isn't your thing, it looks like the knife come with additional stealthy black handle slabs.
