Baroudeur® - Khaki

Sale price59,00 €

This legendary knife succeeded the equally famous Bivouac® knife. It was the official campaign knife of French soldiers from 2001 to 2017. While the Bivouac® gained its reputation for its simple construction and patented system for attaching utensils on both sides of the handle, this "Couteau de Campagne" (campaign knife) - named so for its service to soldiers on campaigns around the world - has a more robust construction. Its blade is secured by a precision-machined liner lock. It still includes the functions of the Bivouac® - a can opener and a corkscrew.

The aesthetics and functionality of this knife were extensively defined by the military services through the SCA (Service Central des Armées). TB took charge of shaping these requirements, as well as mechanical development and manufacturing, while adhering to a particularly rigorous specification.

Compared to the Bivouac®, the Baroudeur® is more robust but also heavier. The utensils are still included with the knife, but they are no longer integrated into the knife. The locking mechanism is provided by a liner lock, the reliability of which is ensured by precise manufacturing using high-precision machining machines. Moreover, it is possible to open the knife with one hand... as long as you are right-handed.

Baroudeur® is the first knife to benefit from CNC machines as well as laser cutting machines, allowing for large-scale production with increased consistency and reliability.

With its announced end of production, Baroudeur® will leave its mark on the history of soldier's equipment. To this day, it is the knife that has accompanied our soldiers for the longest time. There is still time to acquire this piece of history!
