A combat knife (also commonly called a fighting knife or tactical knife) is a knife designed for military use. A common misconception is that "combat knives" are specialized for close combat, whereas since the end of trench warfare, military knives have been primarily designed for utility/tool use (clearing foliage, chopping branches for cover, opening ammo crates, etc). An example of a knife designed for close combat is the trench knife. Modern combat knives come in many shapes and sizes.

  • A combat knife (also commonly called a fighting knife or tactical knife) is a knife designed for military use. A common misconception is that "combat knives" are specialized for close combat, whereas since the end of trench warfare, military knives have been primarily designed for utility/tool use (clearing foliage, chopping branches for cover, opening ammo crates, etc). An example of a knife designed for close combat is the trench knife. Modern combat knives come in many shapes and sizes. Most military forces today have standardized the types of combat knives issued to infantry soldiers. In the United States Marine Corps, the standard issue combat knife since World War II is the KA-BAR. The Chilean Commando forces are trained in the use of the Corvo knife, a traditional Chilean military weapon. One well-known combat knife is the British Fairbairn-Sykes, which is better classified as a dagger with its double-edged design. This dagger is one of the few modern combat knives designed for fighting instead of for field use. The Gurkha regiments favor the Kukri, a broad-bladed curved weapon that more closely resembles a machete or Filipino Bolo than a knife. One of the most famous combat knives is the survival knife made famous by the film First Blood and its sequels, Rambo III and Rambo.
