Well, if you upgraded the steel of a K-bar, used a modern, stronger blade design, better handle materials/shape, etc. You would have a better knife, but by definition it wouldn't be a K-bar anymore.

The K-bar is a great knife, and for the price, it is hard to beat. It will certainly survive hard abuse, but if you are willing to spend the money there are better options nowadays.
