Love the knife and its construction. The clip was on the left side of the knife, so i had to move it. However, i will say that it is the best knife i have ever used at work for rescue operations and utility.

This has been my EDC knife for over 2 years now, Its an amazing knife it holds up well. I've used it at work, gun range, home, outdoor etc. The only issue that I find myself having is the Allen key slots are really small and the knife does not come with one. I have multiple Allen keys and I can't find one this size that I have. I'll just have to go out and look for one. Other than that 5 star knife its awesome. I even ordered one for my fiancé and I plan on ordering other ones in the future. Last thing I would add is that I'm not soft on these knifes, I've even have accidently dropped them on pavement. I've sharpened them probably 4-6 times by now. Once again 5/5 knife look forward to getting more in the future.

Arrived in original packaging with French instructions (cute). Once I translate the frog instructions I’m sure it will be serviceable.

Solid knife with a corkscrew for MRE Wine. A great addition to any kit. Like many reviews I read, this thing is huge. But it's also very sturdy and sharp. Well worth the price.

I like the CAC knife. Looks good, good materials and color choices. It’s not a Chris Reece Benchmade or Emerson but for the money it’s a good everyday carry knife I use at work frequently. I’d buy another one.

I purchased this yellow CAC knife as my first piece from Americana Pipedream. Half expected it to not arrive and half expected it to arrive and be a Wish dot com product. I was blown away by the product when I received it and since then I’ve interacted with customer service and purchased more products from this website and have received nothing but great customer service and great military surplus products.

Product description
The CAC (Combat Assistance Campaign) knife was developed by TARRERIAS-BONJEAN (TB Outdoor) in collaboration with the Armée de Terre. The CAC design was born in 2018 and has been serving French troops since then.
TB Outdoor has been in business since 1648, managed by the same two families who founded it. Their first collaboration with the French army began in 1996, when TB Outdoor created the Bivouac knife and has since progressed into the main supplier of knives and utensil kits for the French army. 
The CAC is the third iteration of the French “campaign knife”, designed to be light and as robust as possible. It can be opened and closed with one hand, allowing easy access when needed. The lock for the blade is used to assist with opening the blade and can be operated with one finger (normally the thumb or index finder). It is also extremely strong, ensuring the blade will stay fixed when opened and locked. 
Le C.A.C Blade
The steel used for the blade was specially developed by TB Outdoor's factory for the CAC knives. It is a nitrogen-doped Z30, which is similar to a Z50 DV14. Nitrox® is composed of 16% chromium and has carbon content of 0.35%.
We advise you to regularly maintain the edge of your knife with a fine sharpening stone or a suitable sharpener. In this way, it will be very easy to preserve all the qualities of your knife over time.
Perfectly resistant to corrosion, the blade is made of Nitrox. The cutting edge is smooth or a hybrid smooth and serrated edges. The CAC also features a window breaker and a reversible belt clip. It is a real concentrate of all the advanced technologies that can be expected from an operational knife.
The handle is constructed of PA6 polymer loaded with G10 fiberglass. These plates are attached to the mechanism via stainless steel screws, one of which cleverly houses a seatbelt cutter. This curved and interchangeable blade is designed to cut webbing, ropes and seat belts to aid extraction in the event of an accident.
What is PA6 FV?
PA6 is a polyamide, a technical thermoplastic. TB Outdoor have selected for their collection of CAC knives a fiberglass-infused PA6 FV. Integrating fiberglass with the polyamide makes it possible to form a three-dimensional network of the skeleton of the part, strengthening its construction. The technical properties of PA6 FV are very similar to those of metal in terms of deformation, creep characteristics and energy absorption.
What is the G10?
The G10 consists of fiberglass that is dipped in resin. After compression and curing of this mixture the G10 becomes a lightweight, durable and robust material. Outdoor and survival knives often offer G10 handles because of these characteristics. G10 is a very resistant material and not very sensitive to water, cold, heat, rot or corrosion.
(2026 manufactured CAC knives will come with an updated serrated blade, the pattern of the serrations have changed for longevity and durability)

We just restocked the venerable French army CAC pocket knife, an AP staple. We've carried these for a couple years, both on the site and in our pockets, and have yet to be disappointed with them. In 1648, in the knife making town of Thiers, France, a small workshop began forging blades that would shape generations. That legacy became TB Outdoor, a company that blends centuries of craftsmanship with modern engineering. In the 1990s, the French Army selected one of their knives as standard issue, beginning a partnership built on trust and performance. Working closely with military experts, the company set out to create a folding knife strong enough for today’s battlefield. The result was the CAC, short for Combat Assistance Campaign. After a demanding selection process, it became the official folding knife of the French Army in 2017. Built with advanced nitrogen strengthened steel and designed for reliable one handed use, it was made for harsh conditions where failure is not an option. From a seventeenth century forge to the pockets of modern soldiers, the CAC carries centuries of skill, discipline, and pride.

The C.A.C. knife (Couteau de Combat), made by TB Outdoor, has a modern history rooted in the evolution of French military gear. Developed in the 2010s, it was created to meet the French Army’s need for a rugged, versatile knife suitable for both combat and utility tasks. TB Outdoor, part of the historic Tarrerias-Bonjean Group dating back to the 17th century, secured the official contract to design and manufacture this next-generation tool. Built to strict military standards, the C.A.C. features a durable stainless steel blade, a wire cutter integrated with the sheath, and a glass breaker at the pommel — all crafted with input from military experts. It replaced older models and became standard issue across French infantry, paratroopers, special forces, and the Foreign Legion. Selected in 2016 and adopted around 2017–2018, the knife has proven itself in operations across Africa and NATO missions. Its blend of combat utility and practical design has earned it respect among soldiers and collectors alike. #collector #edc #knives #history #french #military #everyday
