French Army Paratrooper Knife - WildSteer Tarasco
The WildSteer Tarasco is the French Army's contracted paratrooper combat knife, designed in coordination with the 13e RDP — the French Parachute Dragoon Regiment, one of France's most elite special operations units. Built as a full-tang fixed blade with a stonewashed finish, double integral guard, and textured Kraton handle, the Tarasco is purpose-built for jump operations, CQB, and field survival. The 90-degree spine doubles as a ferro-rod striker, and the issue nylon sheath ships with a diamond sharpening stone and paracord lashing for ambidextrous carry. A serious tool for paratroopers, bushcrafters, and operators who need a French-made combat knife with a real military pedigree.

Designed by French SOF, built like it tooThis knife was designed in coordination with the 13eme RDP thats the French Parachute Dragoon Regiment, one of Frances most elite special operations units. When guys like that have input on a blade design you know its gonna be functional and tough. The 5.12" X46Cr13 stainless blade is thick and came with a really aggressive edge out of the box. The overall length of 10.43" puts it right in that sweet spot between a big folder and a small machete — perfect for field work without being overkill. The handle ergonomics are outstanding, clearly designed by people who actually use knives in the field and not just in a marketing meeting. Ive been using it around camp for about a month now and its quickly become my go-to fixed blade. Made in France, designed by French Special Forces hard to argue with that pedigree
