Tanker Combat Dagger with Sheath | M48 – fixed blade outdoor knife

The M48 Tanker Combat Dagger is a fixed blade knife designed for demanding outdoor tasks. This dagger features a 10.79cm blade made from 3Cr13 stainless steel with a stonewashed finish, combining durability with a tactical appearance.

Construction and materials

The knife measures 24.13cm in total length and weighs 277 grams. The blade utilises 3Cr13 stainless steel with a plain-edge grind and dagger profile for versatile cutting and piercing capabilities. The black handle features an open-ring pommel design for enhanced grip security.

Application and use

This fixed blade knife suits outdoor professionals, bushcraft enthusiasts, and survival trainers requiring a reliable field tool. The dagger design enables both cutting and thrusting motions, making it effective for processing wood, cutting rope, and general camp tasks. The included Kydex sheath provides secure carry options.

Integration and compatibility

As a fixed blade design, the knife requires no deployment mechanism and remains ready for immediate use. The Kydex sheath offers multiple carry positions and secure retention. The substantial weight and dimensions make this knife better suited for pack carry rather than everyday carry applications.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 3Cr13 steel provides moderate corrosion resistance but requires regular maintenance after heavy use. Clean and dry the blade thoroughly, then apply light oil to prevent oxidation. The stonewashed finish helps conceal minor scratches from field use.
