Strider Knives Combat Tanto Chopper, Fixed Blade Knife pre-owned

Strider Knives Combat Tanto Chopper – Fixed Blade

The Strider Knives Combat Tanto Chopper is pure old-school Strider—massive, brutally functional, and built with absolutely no interest in being subtle.

Designed as a serious hard-use fixed blade, the Combat Tanto Chopper combines an imposing American tanto profile with the thick blade stock and bombproof construction that helped establish Strider Knives’ reputation. The aggressive tanto geometry provides an exceptionally strong tip, while the broad blade and substantial forward mass give this knife the authority expected from something carrying the Chopper name.

This isn’t a lightweight belt knife. It’s an overbuilt piece of Strider history designed around strength, durability, and uncompromising performance. The full-tang construction and heavily textured handle provide a secure grip, while the unmistakable Strider profile makes it immediately recognizable to serious collectors.

Built for Abuse. Collected for a Reason.

Large Strider fixed blades have developed a serious following, and examples like the Combat Tanto Chopper represent exactly why. It’s oversized, overbuilt, unmistakably tactical, and comes from an era and design philosophy where durability took priority over everything else.

For the dedicated Strider collector, large-format fixed blades are becoming increasingly difficult to encounter—especially examples in desirable configurations and condition.

Big blade. Thick stock. Combat Tanto. Pure Strider.

This is the kind of knife that doesn’t need an explanation once you pick it up.
