Over 14 continual years in the field, in every terrain and in all conditions, the steel eagles have proven their strength, durability, versatility and dependability, within the special operations community. This was the first model which TOPS knives brought out for the real field “operators” and over the years continues to be a favorite “personal carry choice… of the quite professionals.” It features a wicked 7″ tanto blade with a jagged sawback spine for maximum damage. Beautiful linen Micarta scales, a combat ballistic nylon sheath, and a durable 1/4″ stock of 1095 carbon steel blade with black traction coating make this knife as durable as any on the market. Special Ops trust TOPS…’cause they’re hard to the core.
