Microtech Currahee Fixed Blade Knife Apocalyptic Standard Edge T/E Black MT10310

Built for uncompromising performance, the Microtech Currahee is a field-proven fixed blade rooted in American military heritage. Originally designed years ago for the U.S. Special Forces Boat Team 20, the Currahee carries a name steeped in history. “Currahee” is a Cherokee word meaning “stands alone,” and it’s also the name of the final mountain in the Blue Ridge range near Camp Toccoa, where the U.S. Army trained the first Parachute Infantry during World War II. That spirit of resilience, independence, and endurance is reflected in every aspect of this rugged working knife.

This version of the Currahee features a 4.5" standard edge tanto blade crafted from premium Elmax steel, delivering exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness in demanding conditions. The reinforced tanto tip provides outstanding piercing strength and durability for hard-use tasks, while the straight cutting edge excels at controlled slicing and utility work. The rugged Apocalyptic finish gives the blade a battle-worn look while helping conceal wear and reducing glare in demanding environments.

Built with full tang construction, the Currahee offers the strength and balance serious users demand in the field. The black polymer handle is engineered to provide a secure, confident grip even in wet, muddy, or gloved conditions. A lanyard slot at the base comes equipped with a braided cord lanyard and knocker bead, providing additional retention and quick handling capability when speed and control matter most.

At 9.8" overall and weighing 13.35 ounces, the Currahee balances solid durability with dependable handling. It rides in a heavy-duty ballistic nylon sheath that’s fully MOLLE compatible, allowing easy integration with packs, vests, and tactical gear. Every Currahee is proudly made in the USA with the rugged craftsmanship and precision Microtech is known for.
