The Stroup Knives Dagger Tan is a refined fixed blade built with purpose, balance, and American craftsmanship at its core. Designed for users who demand reliability in both outdoor and tactical environments, this dagger delivers a clean, confident feel that translates into dependable performance. Its streamlined profile and carefully chosen materials reflect Stroup Knives’ focus on tools that are meant to be used, trusted, and relied upon when conditions aren’t forgiving.
Measuring 9.75 inches overall, the knife provides an excellent balance of reach and control. The 5.25-inch dagger-style blade is shaped for precision and stability, making it effective for controlled cutting and demanding tasks alike. With a blade thickness of 0.2 inches, the dagger maintains impressive strength without feeling bulky, giving users a solid, composed feel in hand. The plain edge keeps performance predictable and maintenance straightforward, which is exactly what serious users appreciate.
Crafted from 1095 carbon steel, the blade features a black acid wash finish that reinforces the knife’s rugged character. This finish minimizes glare and enhances the knife’s tactical appearance while adding visual depth that pairs well with the tan handle. The result is a fixed blade that looks purposeful and professional, without unnecessary embellishment.
The tan G-10 handle offers both durability and comfort. Its textured surface promotes a secure grip across a wide range of conditions, whether hands are bare, gloved, or exposed to the elements. The ergonomic shape supports confident handling during extended use, and the ambidextrous design ensures the knife performs naturally for both right- and left-handed users. The tan coloration adds a distinctive look while maintaining a subdued, field-ready appearance.
At just 6.2 ounces, the Stroup Knives Dagger Tan strikes an ideal balance between lightweight carry and solid performance. It’s easy to wear throughout the day without fatigue, yet substantial enough to inspire confidence when put to work. This balance makes it well suited for camp and hiking tasks, as well as tactical applications where agility and control are essential.
The included Kydex sheath is designed for secure, practical carry. Equipped with a belt clip, it allows for easy attachment and dependable retention during movement. The Kydex construction delivers durability, consistent fit, and resistance to moisture and wear, ensuring the knife stays protected and ready for use whenever it’s needed.
Proudly made in the USA, the Stroup Knives Dagger Tan reflects a commitment to quality materials and purposeful design. Every detail serves a function, resulting in a fixed blade that feels intentional and capable rather than overbuilt. It’s a knife that earns its place in both outdoor kits and tactical setups.
