The Microtech Currahee is a full
tang fixed blade originally designed for U.S. Special Fores Boat team
20. The original run of the CURRAHEE was limited, with the first few
put in the hands of those best suited to test the knife, the United
States Special Forces. Field use has proven that these knives can
endure extremely high intensity, and adverse conditions. Currahee is a
Cherokee name, which translates “Stands alone”. CURRAHEE is also the
name of the last mountain in the Blue Ridge chain of mountains, where
the US Army established Camp Toccoa during WWII; here, the first
Parachute Infantry was trained. This knife far surpassed all
expectations, and therefore, Microtech gave it the name “Currahee”.
