We show that the first-order theory of any Knuth-Bendix order in the case of the signatures consisting of unary function symbols and constants is decidable. Our decision procedure uses interpretation of unary terms as trees and uses decidability of the weak monadic second-order theory of binary trees. One area of applications of our result is automated deduction, since using the first-order theory of the Knuth-Bendix orders we can decide an important class of ordering constraints.
